LIBERTY, Mo. - Lenoir-Rhyne University's Colin Corpe has been named the D2Football.com Special Teams Player Of The Week. Corpe, a junior placekicker from Ocala, Fla., tied his own school record with four field goals in L-R's 34-31 victory over Tusculum last Saturday at home.

Corpe connected on all four field goal attempts against the Pioneers including a career-long 47-yarder in the third quarter and finished with 14 points on the day.

Corpe, who earned South Atlantic Conference Special Teams Player-Of-The-Week honors on Monday, moved into a third-place tie on Lenoir-Rhyne's all-time scoring list for kickers with 167 points (Andrew Coln, 2004-07).
