Football – Offensive Player of the Week
Tanner Krueger, Simpson College
Jr., QB, Waverly, Iowa/Waverly-Shell Rock
  • Krueger threw for 329 yards and 4 TDs in Simpson’s 37-36 overtime win over Wartburg.
  • Opting to go for two and the win rather than force a second overtime, Krueger handed the ball off to running back Cam Bunting who flipped the ball to wide receiver Austin Hronich who found Krueger in the endzone for the game-winning two-point conversion.
  • With the ground game not producing for the Strom, Krueger was called upon to produce through the air.
  • The junior QB connected on 23 of 52 attempts, with receivers averaging 14.62 yards per catch.
  • This is the first Offensive Player of the Week award for Krueger.
  • Simpson improved to 3-1 overall and 2-0 in conference play.
