Evans, Kryst and Bass Earn Football Week 2 Weekly Honors

OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Darrynton Evans, Appalachian State (Jr., RB, Oak Hill, Fla.)
Appalachian State junior running back Darrynton Evans' career-high 234 rushing yards (on 19 carries), 298 all-purpose yards and four touchdowns (three rushing, one kick return) propelled the Mountaineers to a 56-41 win over Charlotte. Evans’ 234 rushing yards and 298 all-purpose yards were the most by an NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision player so far this year, while his rushing total was the fifth-highest in school history for a game with less than 20 carries. His 87-yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage was a career-long run, the fourth-longest in the nation this year and the fifth-longest in school history.
