WCU Player of the Game (Mercer)





This week's Purple & Gold  Player of the Game is junior quarterback Tyrie Adams.












Adams amassed a school-record 545 yards of total offense including 360 yards through the air and a career-high 185 yards rushing on Saturday afternoon at Five Star Stadium.
Adams accounted for four touchdowns – two rushing and a pair of passing TDs – as the Catamounts piled up 710 yards of total offense, finishing one yard shy of the school record set by the Hall of Fame 1969 football team (711 yards vs. Emory & Henry). 
The St. Petersburg, Fla., native moved into second-place in WCU’s career record books with 6,347 career passing yards while closing to within one TD pass of former mentor Troy Mitchell (50, 2012-15) for the program’s career passing touchdown record now with 49 career scores through the air.






Purple & Gold sends our congratulations to Tyrie Adams on his selection as this week's WCU Player of the Game.
