Offense
Trinidad Chambliss
Quarterback
Ferris State
Trinidad Chambliss continued to demonstrate his command of the Ferris State offense with a huge output against a quality Michigan Tech team. In the 51-13 Bulldog victory, Chambliss passed for 383 yards, completing 18 of 30 attempts. He tied a school record with six touchdown passes, from distances of 68, 28, 41, 23, 22 and 12 yards.The junior quarterback from Grand Rapids, Michigan also led the Bulldogs in rushing with 90 yards on 10 carries. His 473 yards of total offense was the sixth highest single-game performance in school history. Chambliss was also named GLIAC offensive player of the week for the fourth time this season.
Defense
Jamair Diaz
Linebacker
Glenville State
Glenville State’s defense was clutch in the Pioneers’ 24-21 win over Concord last Saturday and Jamair Diaz led the effort. Diaz accounted for seven total tackles. Five were tackles for loss, totaling 22 yards. Two of those were sacks for a loss of 14 yards. He also forced two fumbles and recovered one. Diaz sealed the win by ending Concord’s final possession with a strip-sack-fumble recovery while Concord was in Glenville State territory with under a minute to play. Jamair Diaz is a sophomore from Passaic, New Jersey.
Special Teams
Cody Ramming
Defensive Lineman
CSU-Pueblo
CSU-Pueblo’s 24-21 win over Black Hills State came down to special teams. With a struggling offense, the Thunderwolves would need to find other ways to create field position and put points on the board. Cody Ramming, a 6’7” defensive lineman from Littleton, Colorado was exactly the weapon they needed. Ramming blocked two Black Hills State field goal attempts. The blocks did more than prevent points from going on the board for Black Hills State…Both were returned for touchdowns by his Thunderwolf teammates, from distances of 75 and 55 yards.
