MEMPHIS — Junior wide receiver Calvin Austin III has been named to the American Athletic Conference Weekly Honor Roll after helping lead Memphis to a 56-14 win over Stephen F. Austin last Saturday.
Austin III had 173 receiving yards on 10 catches, setting a new school record with his fifth consecutive game of at least 100 receiving yards. He also had a 64-yard punt return touchdown, the first for the Tigers since 2018 and the longest since 2015, and a 2-point conversion pass to tight end Sean Dykes. His 290 all-purpose yards Saturday rank sixth in Memphis single-game history.
