Kansas State senior running back and kickoff return specialist William Powell has been named the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week, the conference office announced Monday.
Powell’s distinction, which is the first of his career, marked the third time this season that a Wildcat has earned a conference weekly award.
Daniel Thomas and Anthony Cantele were named the Big 12 Offensive and Special Teams Players of the Week, respectively, following K-State’s season-opening win over UCLA.
