Towson quarterback Grant Enders, was named Colonial Athletic Association Offensive Player of the Week by CAA officials. The sophomore transfer from Lackawanna college led the Tigers to a 42-3 routing of the Morgan State Bears Saturday night.
Enders completed 15 of 19 passes for 197 yards and three touchdowns in Saturday’s contest. The Tiger quarterback also ran for 47 yards on six carries and a touchdown against the Bears.
“Grant managed the game plan and his offense extremely well last night,” Towson Head Coach Rob Ambrose said. “It is a great testament to our entire offense that Grant was able to perform so well. This honor speaks well of both Grant and his teammates.”
Enders ability to manage the tempo of the game, while managing the Towson attack led to four touchdown drives. Each of which, were of multiple plays, and dominated the time of possession. Towson held on to the football almost twice as long as Morgan was able to.
Enders is the first Tiger to be named as the CAA Offensive Player of the Week since Sean Schaefer earned the award in October, 2007. The all-time leading passer in Tigers history, Schaefer led Towson in the greatest comeback in program history, defeating the Richmond Spiders after a come-from-behind winning drive in the final 22 seconds of the game.
