Javontae Campbell Earns MAC Scholar Athlete Of The Week

CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Mid-American Conference announced the MAC Scholar-Athletes of the Week Wednesday afternoon (Nov. 12). Of those named, Bowling Green's Javontae Campbell was named the MAC Male Scholar-Athlete of the Week. This is the first time Campbell has won the award and the third time this season BGSU has had an honoree. Volleyball's Lauryn Hovey was named on Sept. 11 with women's soccer's Emma Stransky named on Sept. 18.

Campbell picked up where he left off last season and then some for the Falcons. Over the first three games of the season, Campbell posted two 20-point games while averaging 20.7 for the week. More impressively, he totaled 17 steals over three games. Campbell's best game came against Le Moyne, swiping eight steals to tie the program's single-game steals record as the fifth player in program history to do so. The outing raised his steals per game to 5.7. He also led the team in rebounds in the season opener with seven as well as assists with five. In the game against Le Moyne, he added another four assists, tying for the team lead. Campbell's effort for the week aided the Falcons in reaching a 3-0 start to the season for the first time since 2014-15.

Up Next
The Falcons will hit the road for the first time this season for their next contest. BGSU will head to North Carolina to face Davidson on Saturday (Nov. 15) with a 6 p.m. start. Bowling Green will then return home to host William & Mary on Nov. 19 for a 7 p.m. tip.
