Buggy Named Gus Weber Crusader Player of the Week
SELINSGROVE , PA – Susquehanna University senior defensive end Damian Buggy has been selected as the winner of the team's Gus Weber Crusader Player of the Week, sponsored by the Family Buffet and Steak House along Routes 11 & 15 in Shamokin Dam.
Buggy (Kulpmont, PA/Mount Carmel) made eight tackles (seven solo), including 3 ½ for losses totaling 22 yards and a pair of sacks, and also intercepted a pass in the Crusaders' 31-14 loss to Widener on Saturday.
The Family Buffet and Steak House will donate a check for $100 in the name of Buggy to the charity of his choice during Friday's Quarterback Club luncheon at noon in the Apple Community Room in the James W. Garrett Sports Complex.
Now in their 10th year of sponsorship of the Gus Weber Player of the Week award, the Family Buffet and Steak House has donated $8,500 to charity in the names of Susquehanna players.
The Player of the Week award is named after former Susquehanna University president Gustave Weber , who served as president of Susquehanna for more than 18 years and was a former standout player at Wagner College . He was an avid booster of Crusader athletics, and in particular the football team, which he coached for the final two games of the 1965 season.
The Crusaders (1-5 overall, 1-4 MAC) travel to Delaware Valley for a 1:00 p.m. kickoff on Saturday.
