Nick Watson has been named GMAC Offensive Player of the Week.

The combination of rain and wind tempered offensive expectations in the most recent week of competition around the league, but Watson found ways to get it done on three scoring drives to help Tiffin beat Kentucky Wesleyan 21-0.
 
The senior went back-to-back for weekly offensive honors after rushing for a pair of touchdowns and throwing for one in the 21-0 victory.
 
Watson accounted for a share in all of the Dragons' scoring as he finished 15-for-28 passing and connected with Devin Butler for a 25-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.
 
Watson's 1-yard run resulted in the only first-half points by either side to cap a short six-play scoring drive.
 
He rushed in from 13 yards out for the first points after halftime midway through the third quarter. Watson then guided the Dragons on an 11-play scoring drive that finished with Butler on the receiving end for the score.
 
Watson finished the game with nine carries for 29 yards.
