University of Missouri-Rolla junior quarterback Brad Guidry has earned his second weekly award of the 2007 season, as he was named as the Great Lakes Football Conference's "Offensive Player of the Week" for his showing in UMR's 28-10 victory over Wisconsin-Stout Saturday.
Guidry started the game by completing his first 11 passes and finished the night 22-of-34 for 304 yards and two touchdowns. Guidry also ran for a score in the game as well.
He was five-of-five on the Miners' opening drive and completed it with a 28-yard scoring pass to Mike Greaving. Guidry scored the Miners' second touchdown on the ground, breaking a tackle from a blitzing linebacker and running around the end for the score. His third touchdown pass covered 15 yards to Ashton Gronewold; Guidry and Gronewold combined later in the game for a 62-yard completion to set up the Miners' final score that put the game away.
Earlier this season, Guidry was named as the top offensive player of the week for the NCAA Division II independents by D2Football.com. It is the fourth weekly award won by a Miner this season; Ashton Gronewold was the GLFC's offensive recipient after the opening week of the season and running back Antonio Williams was D2Football.com's top special teams player for the independents after the Miners' August 30 game at Missouri State.
A native of Rusk, Texas, Guidry transferred to UMR from Blinn Junior College.
