Moore Selected PSAC West Special Teams Player of the Week

LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – Gannon's Damario Moore (Indianapolis, Ind./Lawrence North) has been named the PSAC West Special Teams Players of the Week. The conference announced its weekly award winners on Monday afternoon.
 
A diminutive freshman Moore played a big role in Gannon's 38-35 upset of No. 14/16 Slippery Rock. The 5-foot-8 wide receiver accounted for a pair of touchdowns as Gannon snapped a 10-game losing streak to Slippery Rock while winning for the first time this season.
 
The first six-pointer came on an 89-yard kickoff return midway through the first quarter. It was the first kickoff return for a touchdown by a Golden Knight since 2013. In addition it was the second-longest kickoff return in school history.
 
Moore later pulled Gannon even at 28-28 late in the second quarter with a 38-yard touchdown reception. He ended the day returning four kickoffs for 158 yards, the fourth-highest single-game total. He added three receptions for 46 yards and ran the ball four times for 28 yards. All told he had 232 all-purpose yards.
 
Moore is averaging 25.7 yards on 18 kickoff returns, ranking fourth in the PSAC. He is fourth on the team in receiving with 10 catches for 217 yards and has a team-high three touchdowns receiving.
 
Gannon returns to action on Saturday, October 11 hosting Clarion at 12 noon.
