The
Indoor Football League (IFL) is proud to announce the Week 2
Vidswap.com Players of the Week. In the only regular season game on the
schedule in Week 2, the Cedar Rapids Titans improved their record to 2-0
with a hard fought 58-52 victory over the Chicago Slaughter, who fell
to 0-2.
Offensive Player of the Week: Bryan Pray (WR, Cedar Rapids Titans)
If
Bryan Pray had his way, Cedar Rapids would play Chicago every week.
Pray (5'7, 170, Pittsburg State) had another monster game against the
Slaughter, hauling in 4 passes for 71 yards and 3 touchdowns. One of the
touchdowns came on a 40 yard bomb from QB Colton Hansen in the 3rd
quarter. After the Titans jumped out to an early lead, the Slaughter
slowly began to fight their way back into the game. However, all three
of Pray's touchdowns came in the 2nd half and helped solidify the win
for the Titans. Currently, Pray leads the league with 5 receiving
touchdowns on the season.
Defensive Player of the Week: Trevor Glomski (LB, Cedar Rapids Titans)
After
giving up a franchise high 191 yards rushing to the Slaughter in Week 1
the Titans knew they had to make some adjustments in the Week 2
rematch. Trevor Glomski (6'1, 240, Concordia) stepped up in a big way,
leading the charge to allow only 53 rushing yards. Glomski recorded 13
tackles (6 solo, 7 assisted) including 2.5 for loss. In addition, the
Titans defense did not allow the Slaughter to convert a 3rd conversion
during the entire game (0-9). Cedar Rapids will need another strong
effort from Glomski this week if they hope to slow down the high powered
offense of the Texas Revolution. The Revolution lit up the score board
for a total of 103 points in their preseason opener last week.
Special Teams Player of the Week: Kyle Jenkins (DL, Chicago Slaughter)
Jenkins
(6'4, 250, Northern Illinois) and the rest of the Chicago's Special
Teams unit did all they could to keep the Slaughter in the game on
Sunday. Jenkins blocked two Radamez Rubio field goal attempts, one of
which occurred during the 4th quarter and was returned by teammate Lenny
Radtke for a touchdown. Jenkins also turned in an inspired defensive
performance, accounting for 6 tackles (3 solo, 3 assisted) 3.5 for loss,
and 2.5 sacks. Despite the early season struggles, the Slaughter will
look to get on track Saturday night when they host their bitter rivals
the Green Bay Blizzard.
