Lewis named football Freshman of the Week

Western Carolina running back Garry Lewis was named the football Freshman of the Week by the Southern Conference.

Running back Garry Lewis provided a spark for Western Carolina as the Catamounts downed Elon, 27-24, in overtime.

Lewis carried 16 times for 72 yards and caught five passes for 58 yards in the win. His 130 all-purpose yards all came after halftime. Lewis caught all five of his passes on Western Carolina’s final drive of regulation, which culminated in a 6-yard touchdown pass from Troy Mitchell to Karnorris Benson to tie the game.

Congratulations to Lewis from Purple & Gold
