LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – For the fourth time this season, a member of the Bloomsburg football team brought home the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) East Offensive Player of the Week accolade as KJ Riley (Danville, Pa./Danville Area) earned his second honor, as announced by the league.
 
Riley led the Huskies to a 35-27 senior day win over Millersville on Saturday to clinch a winning season for the Huskies and finish their conference slate third in the PSAC East.
 
The junior from Danville, Pa. had a career-game with 321 passing yards as he went 13-for-22 with two touchdown passes, one interception and a sack. Riley also carried the ball 20 times for 87 yards and three touchdowns. The jack-of-all trades also kicked the extra points as he accounted for all 35 Bloomsburg points on Saturday.
 
Riley got the Huskies on the board first with a two-yard run into the end zone before completing the scoring drive with his first extra point in the first quarter. Riley then hit Jerry Griffen-Batchler (Norristown, Pa./Germantown Academy) for a 59-yard touchdown pass on the first play of Bloomsburg's next drive before hitting another extra point. Riley ran in a pair of touchdowns in the third quarter before finding Griffen-Batchler again for a 68-yard pass for his fifth total touchdown of the game and his fifth extra point. 
 
Riley did all of the punting as well with 154 total yards, averaging 38.5 yards per punt and one inside the 20. Millersville was able to return just one of his four punts for just 13 yards. Riley had 353 kickoff yards on six kickoffs, as two went for a touchback. 
 
Bloomsburg travels to Slippery Rock for the final game of the season, a 1:00 p.m. kick off from Slippery Rock, Pa. on November 16.
