RICHMOND, Va. \u2013<\/strong> Announced by the conference office Monday, junior running back Omar Osbourne<\/a> has been named the CAA Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in the University at Albany football team\u2019s victory over Colgate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Osbourne, a native of Syracuse, N.Y., finished with a career- and game-high 252 yards on the ground, including a pair of touchdowns, to lead the Great Danes to their second win in as many years over the Raiders. The junior, whose 252 yards on 35 carries marks the third-best rushing performance in program history, turned in his career-high rushing total in the first half alone as UAlbany moved to 1-1 on the season with Saturday\u2019s 37-34 win.<\/span><\/p>\n

Osbourne gave the Great Danes their first lead of the season (7-0) with a 5-yard touchdown rush on their opening drive. Out of the halftime break, Osbourne struck again, rushing for 15-yards into the end zone on a 4th-and-1 situation, stretching the lead to 30-14.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the Great Dane defense made the key play of the game, stopping a 4th-and-goal attempt on the 1-yard line, Osbourne led the Danes to a 99-yard scoring drive. He rushed four times in the possession, including a 36-yarder that set up another UAlbany touchdown, putting the game out of reach (37-27, 1:34 4th).<\/span><\/p>\n

UAlbany returns to action Saturday, September 14th, when they host Rhode Island for the Great Danes\u2019 inaugural CAA contest and first game at the brand new Bob Ford<\/a> Field.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
