It's time to face it- Schor has been putting the work in and it shows. He has far surpassed anything I thought he was capable of doing and he still has 3+ weeks to go to continue to shut up critics- even our own.
This week is a huge test for him and I have complete faith that Schor will get it done.

You schor about that?

Bryan Schor, Jr., QB, James Madison (Milford, Pa./Delaware Valley)
Schor completed 21-of-22 passes for a career-high 309 yards and a career-best five touchdowns in James Madison’s 84-7 victory over Rhode Island. The junior set a school record for completion percentage and tied the school mark for passing TD’s in a game. He also ran for 49 yards on seven carries to finish with a career-high 358 yards of total offense.

Schor ties the passing TD's in a game with 5 with V. Lee (vs. Elon in 2015) and Birdsong (vs. Stony Brook in 2013).

Not to derail but I remember several posters pointing to Birdsong's records for validation that he was good/great. I'm thinking he is sitting in 2nd or 3rd in most records he broke.

Schor got FCS National Performer of the Week from College Football Performance Awards.

Dukes continuing to represent well not only on the field, but off as well. Here is a story on the team and the newest Duke, 10 year old Ian Barbe.

Maddisen Cox wins the CAA Golfer of the Week award this week after her 10th place finish at the Idle Hour Collegiate Championship, her third top 10 finish in the fall season. She also aced the 12th hole on Monday! Congrats on the PotW award, and the Hole-in-One, Maddisen! I hope to be so lucky and get an ace someday.

Schor had some great WR help in that game... I'd say he has become a very smart / judicious QB... very russel Wilson like. That's a great thing, despite not being a deep ball guy (awk)

CAA Offensive Player of the Week
Bryan Schor, Jr., QB, James Madison (Milford, Pa./Delaware Valley)
Schor completed 22-of-28 passes for 285 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for 91 yards and a TD on 12 carries in No. 7 James Madison’s 47-43 victory over No. 6 Richmond, ending the Spiders’ 11-game home winning streak. The junior quarterback finished with a career-high 376 yards of total offense and produced at least four TD’s for the third straight game.

It's a Schor thing! Congrats to Bryan for another CAA POTW award.

Women's Volleyball players Janey Goodman and Taylor Austin picked up CAA Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week, respectively.

CAA Defensive Player of the Week
Cornell Urquhart, Jr., DL, James Madison (Richmond, Va./Benedictine)
Urquhart made five tackles, blocked a field goal and tipped a pass that resulted in a key fourth-quarter interception as No. 6/5 James Madison edged No. 9/11 Villanova, 20-7, to clinch the CAA title. His blocked field goal kept the contest tied at 7-7 in the third quarter and the interception came with under four minutes to go and set up a TD that helped put the game way. The Dukes limited VU to 239 total yards and forced four turnovers.

Precious Hall wins CAA Player of the Week and Kimiah Smalls wins CAA Rookie of the Week!!

Congrats to both, very well earned.

Brian

Sarah Martin of the volleyball team won her second CAA Rookie of the Week award, and the Dukes won a share of the CAA regular season title! More on that coming up in the weekly fall sports update.

CAA Football Rookie of the Week
Cole Johnson, Fr., QB, James Madison (Virginia Beach, Va./Cox)
In his first career start, Johnson completed 12-of-13 passes for 274 yards and two touchdowns in James Madison’s 63-14 triumph over Elon. The freshman quarterback had scoring passes of 70 and 21 yards and completed three other throws over 25 yards. Johnson also ran for 23 yards to help the Dukes finish conference play undefeated.

Excellent! Amazing that after Schor's streak of CAA POTW wins, CoJo wins rookie of week. Congratulations to Cole and to all the Dukes that made this happen!

Anyone know when the end of season CAA awards will be announced?

I gotta think that Schor and KA3K are on the short list for offensive player of the year.

Their competition is going to come from one of the following: Troy Pelletier WR, New Hampshire, Kyle Lauletta, QB Richmond, Kendell Anderson, RB W&M, Darius Victor, RB Towson, Brian Brown, WR, Richmond.

I'm partial to Schor, but I'm not completely convinced a JMU player takes the award. You could make a case for Lauletta over Schor based on some of the statistics.
