Football Earns Two CCC Weekly Awards

BIDDEFORD, Maine - Coming off an impressive 20-16 win over MIT on Saturday, the Curry College football team scooped up a pair of weekly awards from the Commonwealth Coast Conference on Monday afternoon.

Sophomore running back Montie Quinn (Goose Creek, S.C.) was named the CCC Offensive Player of the Week, while freshman Jolil Walker (Baltimore, Md.) earned CCC Defensive Rookie of the Week honors.

Quinn eclipsed 200 yards rushing for the first time this season in Curry's over MIT. He rushed the ball 36 times for 203 yards and a score in the win, with his longest run coming in at 57 yards.

Walker had a breakout game for Curry on Saturday as the Colonels earned their first victory of the season. He notched five tackles, all solo, to go along with a pair of interceptions in the win. His second pick came with two minutes remaining in the contest, sealing Curry's victory.

Quinn and Walker are Curry's first CCC weekly award recipients of the 2023-24 academic year.
