Albion's Orr Runs Away With MIAA Offensive Player of the Week Award

Clinton Orr matched his career-high with four touchdowns in Albion College's 35-16 win over Central (Iowa) College Saturday and he was rewarded Monday by being named the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association's Offensive Player of the Week for the second time this season.

A senior from Buchanan, Orr returned the opening kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown and he reached the end zone on runs of 5, 25, and 40 yards. Orr finished the afternoon with 208 all-purpose yards – 118 rushing on 24 carries and the 90-yard kick return. His four touchdowns matched the career-high he established in the Britons' 35-10 win over Greenville on Sept. 18, 2010.

Orr had scored 11 touchdowns through four games this season and is tied for the Division III lead in scoring. He is 17^th on the D-III ladder in all-purpose yards (averaging a shade more than 178 yards per game) and he is 37^th in rushing at nearly 115 yards per contest.

Albion, which completed the non-league portion of its schedule with a 3-1 record, is idle this week. The Britons travel to Angola, Ind., Oct. 6 to begin Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association play at Trine University.
