TYLER BRANDENBURG OF TEXAS LUTHERAN UNIVERSITY, a 6-2, 210-pound senior kicker and punter from Spring, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Football Special Teams Player-of-the-Week for games played Saturday, September 6th. 

Brandenburg, last season's SCAC Co-Special Teams Player of the Year picked up where he left off last season, going a perfect 2-for-2 on field goal attempts from 35 and 31 yards out to extend his field goals made streak to 10. He was 7-for-8 on PATs with his only miss coming on a blocked kick.

Brandenburg's 35-yarder as time expired in the first half gave TLU a 17-15 lead at the half. 

Brandenburg also had the hustle play of the game, catching Sul Ross returner Uriah Mosley at the 1-yard line. It appeared Mosley would score on a 100-yard kickoff return, but Brandenburg ran down and caught Mosley at the 1.

Other outstanding performances in the SCAC:
Senior defensive back Shane Hodge of Austin College played a big role in the field position battle against Rhodes, averaging 8.8 yards per punt return with a long of 15 yards and also adding three tackles from his defensive back position. Senior wide receiver Matthew Kennemer of Trinity racked up 127 yards on five kickoff returns in the game, highlighted by a pair of crucial returns in the fourth quarter. His 39-yard return set Trinity up for a go-ahead score in the fourth quarter, then his next return went for 40 yards to put the Tiger offense in Howard Payne territory on its final drive. Southwestern's game was terminated in the third quarter due to lightning in the area
