Robinson, Villasenor named SAC Football Players of the Week

ROCK HILL, S.C. --- Tusculum University defensive back Andrae Robinson and placekicker Juan Villasenor have been named the South Atlantic Conference Football Players of the Week. Robinson was tabbed the SAC Defensive Player of the Week, while Villasenor captured Special Team Player of the Week laurels.

Robinson, a sophomore from Covington, Georgia, posted five solo tackles and accounted for a pair of turnovers in Tusculum's 50-17 SAC win over Catawba. Robinson recovered a fumble in the first half and then recorded a program-record 97-yard interception for a touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Villasenor, a sophomore from Morristown, Tennessee, recorded a career-best 14 points in the Pioneers' win over Catawba. He went 3-for-4 on field goals and was a perfect 5-for-5 on extra point attempts. He hit field goals of distances covering 30, 21, and 19 yards.

Tusculum (3-1, 1-1 SAC) returns to action this Saturday when the Pioneers make their inaugural visit to Wilson, North Carolina to face Barton College in a league contest. Game time is slated for 2 p.m.
