Peru State quarterback Tyler Audsley joined Benedictine teammates Andrew Jones and Zach Keenan as the first Heart of America Athletic Conference Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for the 2013 season, respectively, on Monday afternoon.

With an injury to returning starter Bo Shepard (Gretna) forcing Audsley over to the offensive side of the ball with just one week to prepare, the sophomore looked like a veteran in his first collegiate start. A native of (Prescott Valley, Ariz.), Audsley accounted for 208 total yards and four touchdowns, including three on the ground. He carried 14 times for 148 yards while completing 6-of-9 passes for 60 yards in leading the Bobcats to a 56-21 win over Dakota State (S.D.).
