Simpson freshman punter Mason Ackerson earned the American Rivers Conference Special Teams Player of the Week award for his efforts on Saturday, as the Storm defeated the Spartans of Dubuque 21-14. Ackerson punted five times for 209 yards, with none bigger than a late punt deep inside Storm territory that went 62 yards to put Dubuque on their own 23 yard line with less than two minutes to play. Ackerson has a total of 317 yards in eight tries for a conference-leading average 39.6 yards per punt. The Storm football team will host Buena Vista this Saturday for their next game.
