Purple & Gold's Catamount Player of the Game for the season opening victory over Mars Hill is Troy Mitchell.
Mitchell completed 29-of-43 passes for 298 yards and added a team-high 62 rushing yards on eight carries. During the game, Mitchell became Western Carolina's all-time leader in total offense, by-passing previous record holder Lonnie Galloway (6,832 yds, 1990-93) who held the record for 22 years.
Mitchell surpassed Galloway's record on a 44-yard scoring strike to Karnorris Benson in the third quarter.
Purple & Gold congratulates Troy on both his new record, and his selection as the Catamount Player of the Game.
