FARMINGTON, Utah — For the first time in school history, Sacramento State football student-athletes took home the Big Sky Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Player of the Week awards in the same week. The honor was the first for each player.

Quarterback Kaiden Bennet was named the Offensive Player of the Week after accounting for 379 yards of total offense. Bennett completed 21-of-33 passes for 279 yards and a game-winning touchdown pass with 92 seconds remaining. He also rushed for 100 yards and had a touchdown. Bennett has rushed for at least one score in each game this season and has crossed the century mark in the last two contests.

Jett Stanley sparked a Hornet defense with a career high three sacks. Stanley finished the game with five tackles and led a Hornet defense which had six sacks as a team.  Prior to game, Stanley had never had more than one TFL in a game.

Zach Schreiner captured the Special Teams Player of the Week award after making all three field goal attempts as well as each of his three PATs. Schreiner was successful on field goal tries of 24, 22 and 44 yards. His 44-yard field goal tied the game with 4:13 remaining and was the longest of his Sacramento State career. He has now made 6-of-7 field goals this year.

Sacramento State has previously had two Big Sky athletes of the week seven times. The most recent occasion came in 2019 when Kevin Thomson (offense) and Devon Medeiros (special teams) earned the award on Oct. 19 after beating Montana.

The Hornets were also selected as the FedEx Ground FCS National Team of the Week.

The team's performance against Stanford vaulted Sacramento State to fourth in both the Stats Perform FCS media poll and the AFCA FCS coaches poll.
