St. Anselm players sweep NE-10 honors

Wilson (pictured) was named the league's Offensive Player and Freshman of the Week, while Tormollan earned Defensive Player of the Week honors. The honor marks the second Player of the Week award for Wilson this year, while Tormollan is honored for the first time.

Wilson continued to rewrite the St. Anselm record book as he set the program's single-game record for yards rushing by running for 285 yards on 35 carries in Saturday's 28-14 win over Pace. Wilson became the program's first 1,000-yard rusher in the first half on a 67-yard touchdown run, and finished his freshman season with 1,214 yards on the ground. In addition, his 270 rushing attempts broke the previous record of 193.

Tormollan capped off his Saint Anselm career by recording eight tackles. He also intercepted a pass and recovered a fumble.

In addition to Wilson and Tormollan, junior running back Luke St. Marie earned a spot on the NE-10 weekly honor roll with a 144-yard, two-touchdown afternoon in the win.
