Oct. 29, 2014 Troy McClelland of the football team has been named the USD Muscle Milk Student-Athlete of the Week for the week of Oct. 20 to Oct. 27.
McClelland, senior captain of the team, was named the co-Pioneer Football League defensive player of the week for his outstanding performance in the team's 40-29 victory over the Dayton Flyers last Saturday. The Torero safety forced two Flyer turnovers that helped set up San Diego touchdowns. He forced a fumble that San Diego recovered at the Dayton 28-yard line and three plays later was converted into a go-ahead touchdown. In the fourth quarter McClelland intercepted a pass and returned it 27 yards to the Dayton 14, setting up San Diego's final score. He also had six tackles (four solo) in the contest.
Come out and see McClelland and the USD Football team in action when they return to Torero Stadium on Saturday, Novmber 8th and face Morehead State at 1pm.
