ST. LOUIS — For the second time this season, South Dakota State left tackle Quinten Christensen has been honored as the Missouri Valley Football Conference Offensive Lineman of the Week.
A senior from Wessington Springs, Christensen registered a 96 percent assignment grade and tallied a team-leading 11 knockdown blocks in the Jackrabbits' 41-15 victory at Northern Iowa on Nov. 7. He had no missed assignments and did not allow a pressure or sack as SDSU racked up 467 yards of total offense. Of SDSU's yardage total, 259 came on the ground as SDSU posted its average per game as it continues to lead the Football Championship Subdivision in rushing (259.3 ypg).
Christensen previously received the award following the Jackrabbits' season-opening win over Stetson on Aug. 29.
South Dakota State moved up to fourth in both major FCS polls after improving to 8-2 overall and 5-1 in the MVFC with the win at Northern Iowa. The Jackrabbits travel Saturday to Southern Illinois, with kickoff slated for 1 p.m. at Saluki Stadium in Carbondale, Illinois.
