John Ford of the LHU football team has been named this week’s Susquehanna Trailways/GoLHU.com Men’s Athlete of the Week.

Sophomore running back John Ford (Etters, Pa./Red Land (Shippensburg Univ.)) led the offensive charge on Saturday in the Bald Eagles historic win over local-rival and PSAC East perennial power Bloomsburg.

LHU beat BU 26-18 thanks to Ford’s career-high 144 yards on the ground. Ford carried the ball a career-high 35 times, averaging 4.1 yards per rush. Ford scored one TD helping Lock Haven snap a six-game losing streak to the Huskies and it marked LHU's first win over local-rival BU since 2003.

Bloomsburg was picked third in the PSAC East preseason coaches' poll and just two seasons ago played in the NCAA Division II quarterfinals.

The weekly GoLHU.com Athletes of the Week are presented by Susquehanna Trailways, the official Motorcoach Company of LHU Athletics. Visit http://www.susquehannabus.com/ for more!
