LOGAN, Utah – After making a trio of field goals in Utah State’s thrilling 26-23 come-from-behind victory last Saturday at Washington State, Connor Coles has been named the Mountain West Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 1, it was announced Monday by the league office. 

Coles, who kicked field goals of 23, 39 and 28 yards, respectively, won the award for the second time in his career. Overall, this the Aggies’ 35th weekly honor in their ninth season in the league.
