Athletes of the Week
Senior punter Ben Woods was named the male athlete-of-the-week. Woods averaged 44 yards per punt in Buffalo's first game against Rutgers. Out of his seven punts, only one was returned. Three of his kicks were downed within the 20-yard line. Last year, Woods averaged 37.9 yards per punt and a career-best 13 inside the 20 yardline.
Senior Lizaiha Garcia was named the female athlete-of-the-week. Garcia broke a Bulls volleyball record for most digs in a career at Buffalo. She had a season-high 22 digs to help Buffalo beat South Florida. Garcia also recorded 20 digs against Albany to help her earn all-tournament honors for the Western New York Invitational.
