Ulrich Named Gus Weber Crusader Player of the Week

SELINSGROVE, PA – Susquehanna University senior quarterback Craig Ulrich is the recipient of the team’s Gus Weber Crusader Player of the Week, sponsored by the Golden Corral Family Steak House along Routes 11 & 15 in Shamokin Dam.

Ulrich (Milton, PA/Milton H.S.) completed 20-of-33 passes for 249 yards and two touchdowns as the Crusaders improved to 2-0 in the Middle Atlantic Conference with a 26-14 win over Moravian on Homecoming at Lopardo Stadium on Saturday.

Ulrich set career highs for completions and yards in the victory, and has thrown for 200 or more yards in each of the Crusaders’ three games this season. He ranks second in the MAC in both yards per game (219.0) and pass efficiency rating (133.7), having completed 48-of-88 passes for 657 yards and five touchdowns while tossing just one interception.

The Golden Corral will donate a check for $100 in the name of Ulrich to the charities of his choice. Through seven years of sponsorship of the Gus Weber Player of the Week award, Golden Corral has donated $5,900 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 (2-1 overall, 2-0 MAC) travel to Delaware Valley (2-0 overall, 1-0 MAC) on Saturday at 1 p.m.
