For the second straight week, Jordan Beem eclipsed 200 yards of total offense to earn Student-Athlete of the Week honors.

Beem, last week’s IIAC Offensive Player of the Week, ran for 119 yards and caught another 92 while scoring all three of Simpson’s touchdowns — having rushing touchdowns of four and 13 yards and a 77-yard touchdown reception.

“He had a heck of a game,” head coach Jim Glogowski said. “He has the ability to catch the ball in the backfield and in the slot and then run the football.”

Over the past two weeks, Beem has accumulated 465 yards of total offense and six touchdowns.

He’ll look to make it three straight breakout performances against Coe College in Cedar Rapids this Saturday, Oct. 17.
