June 8, 2011 - Indoor Football League (IFL) News Release
Richmond, VA: The Indoor Football League is proud to announce the Vidswap.com Players of the Week for Week 16 in the IFL. Each week the IFL selects three players, one from each phase of the game, offense, defense, and specials teams, whose play on the field stood out among the rest of the competition. The Week 16 Players of the week are listed as follows:
Offensive Player of the Week: Donovan Porterie, QB, Fairbanks Grizzlies
Porterie put on a show this weekend against the Timberwolves, throwing 14-19 for 245 yards and 7 touchdowns. Donovan has been a huge part in the Grizzlies tough offensive front this season. Recently tallying up his 30th touchdown for the season, Porterie is at 53.3% passing on the year and looking to build on those numbers in the playoffs.
Defensive Player of the Week: Tommy Chavis, DL, Sioux Falls Storm
Leading his team in Sacks, Tommy Chavis is a QB's worst nightmare coming off of the snap. With 5.5 sacks on the year and 41 total tackles Chavis makes sure to participate in every play. Week 16 in particular was a good showing for Chavis as he recorded 5 tackles (2 for loss), 1 forced fumble, 1 sack, and a fumble recovery for a touchdown, naming him the Week 16 Defensive Player of the Week.
Special Teams Player of the Week: Travis Atter, K, Wyoming Cavalry
It is not many games where a kicker makes his mark on the scoreboard, but for Atter this weekend was quite different. He went 2-3 on FGs from 33 and 41 yards and 5-5 on extra points, scoring a total of 11 points and achieving Special Teams Player of the Week.
