CEDAR CITY, Utah, Oct. 15 - Southern Utah's Brock
Miller was named the ROOT Sports Big Sky Conference
Special Teams Player of the Week following his performance last week at
Montana. Miller, a junior from Solana Beach, Calif., punted seven times for 301
yards (an average of 43.0 yards per kick) and pinned the Grizzlies inside their
own 20 yard line four times. Montana didn't have much luck returning Miller's
punts either, as the Grizzlies wound up with minus-two punt return yards.
Miller's biggest contribution came when he didn't punt the ball, however,
instead tucking it and running 22 yards on fourth and two to sustain an SUU drive
that led to the field goal that gave the Thunderbirds the lead for good.
Miller is Southern Utah's second BSC special teamer of the
week this season. Josh Smith earned the award following his performance
returning kicks at Portland State.
