FARMINGTON, Utah — For the second time this season,
Landon Ogles earned a weekly honor from the conference. Ogles was named Big Sky Co-Special Teams Player of the Week, announced by the conference today.
The award is Ogles' second of the season after earning his first career player of the week award in the first week of the season. He shares this week's award with Montana's punter/kicker Ty Morrison.
