After returning two punts for touchdowns in Colorado State’s win over Fresno State, senior wide receiver Joe Hansley was named the Mountain West Special Teams Player of the Week Monday.
Hansley scored three touchdowns during Saturday’s 34-31 win over the Bulldogs, including the two on punt returns. They were CSU’s first punt-return touchdowns since Sept. 1, 2013, when Hansley ran one back against Colorado.
Hansley became just the second Ram to ever return two punts for touchdowns in a game, joining Dallas Davis vs. Utah on Oct. 28, 1999.
Adding to his versatility, Hansley added a third touchdown, this time as a wide receiver.
