OLIVET, Mich. -- Olivet College sophomore Edric Miller of Battle Creek is the Comet of the Week for Oct. 25.
Miller totaled 283 all-purpose yards in Olivet's 42-24 loss against Albion College Oct. 23. He ran the ball 20 times for 188 yards, including an 80-yard touchdown; caught two passes for 77 yards, including a 62-yard touchdown; and returned a kickoff for 18 yards. All except for two rushing yards and the kickoff return happened in the second half of action.
His 283 all-purpose yards were the most for an Olivet player in a single-game since Travis Sleight had 306 yards against Hope College Oct. 8, 2005. The 80-yard touchdown run tied the longest run from scrimmage since Kemp Luchie's run against Kalamazoo College Oct. 18, 2003.
Olivet returns to the field Saturday, Oct. 30, at MIAA-leader Trine University. Game time is 1 p.m. You can listen to the game online at www.wocrfm.com or locally on WOCR 89.1 FM.
Olivet's sports information office will select a Comet of the Week throughout the remainder of the 2010-11 academic year. The athlete will be featured on the home page of the athletics Web site at www.olivetcollege.edu/athletics.
