South Georgia Wildcats News Release
June 13, 2007, Albany, Georgia - The South Georgia Wildcats are pleased to announce that wide receiver Chavis McCollister has been named the Schutt Sports Offensive Player of the Week for Week 11 of the af2 2007 season. McCollister (5'10, 210) had an amazing individual performance for South Georgia on Saturday in the team's 70-62 home loss to top-ranked Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. The playmaker from Tarleton, now in his third af2 season, set new league single-game records with 308 receiving yards and eight receiving touchdowns against the Pioneers. McCollister also tied af2 single-game highs for points scored (48) and total touchdowns (8). He caught 16 passes on the night, averaging over 19 yards per reception (19.25), and also had three rushes for 13 yards for a total of 321 all-purpose yards. This is the third weekly league honor of McCollister's career. He earned two af2 weekly awards in 2006 with two different teams (U.S. Army Ironman of the Week - WK7 - Oklahoma City; Schutt Offensive Player of the Week - WK14 - Macon). McCollister currently leads the league in receiving yards (1,157), ranks second in receptions (90), and is tied for seventh in receiving touchdowns (21).
The Wildcats (7-3) travel to Huntsville, Alabama to challenge the Tennessee Valley Vipers (4-6) Saturday night at the Von Baun Civic Center. This is a division game for the Wildcats.
