Owens named WAC Player of Week

Advertiser Staff

University of Hawai'i slotback Chad Owens today was named the Western Athletic Conference's Player of the Week for both offense and special teams.

In Saturday's 49-41 victory over Northwestern, Owens caught nine passes for 155 yards and four touchdowns. He also scored on a 76-yard punt return. It was his fourth punt return for a touchdown this season.

Owens, a fifth-year senior from Roosevelt High, is one of four UH captains this season.

This is the first time since Nov. 23, 1998, that a player has won two Player of the Week awards in the same week.
