November 01, 2010 | Football, General, Women's Swimming & Diving
Each week, the Bowling Green State University Athletic Department names the Papa John's Athletes of the Week, as selected by the athletic communications department based on their athletic performances from the previous week. This week's winners are football player Chris Jones and swimmer Vicky Yu.
Male Athlete of the Week
Chris Jones, a sophomore from Brownsburg, Ind., had six tackles, five of which were for losses, and 3.5 sacks in Bowling Green's 17-14 win over Central Michigan Saturday. He also recovered a fumble in the victory. Central Michigan entered the game averaging 23.1 points and 399.1 total yards but the Jones-led defense held the Chippewas to 14 points and 231 total yards. On Central Michigan's last play ditch effort to score the game-winning touchdown, Jones recovered a fumble off of a lateral.
Female Athlete of the Week
Vicky Yu, a junior from Shenyang, China, won two individual events and competed in two more BGSU relay victories as the Falcons defeated Akron 160-134 in the MAC opener for both teams. Yu beat the nearest Akron competitor by nearly two seconds in the 100 butterfly and followed that up by winning the 200 butterfly in 3.5 seconds. Her time of :53.29 in the back half of her run in the 400 frestyle relay helped the team erase an early deficit. She also swam on the winning 200 medley relay team.
