Ten Cal Poly players named to the All-Time Great West Football Team
Jake Romanelli, a fullback for the Cal Poly football team, was named the player of the week in the Great West Conference by College Sports Madness.
The 6-foot-3, 240-pound senior from Templeton ran for 101 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries in the Mustangs’ 31-27 comeback win over defending conference champion Southern Utah.
Romanelli, who has 550 yards and six TDs for the season, can tie a Cal Poly record for consecutive 100-yard games with his fifth straight at 11 a.m. Saturday at North Dakota. Antonio Warren set that record in 1995 and 1996.
Additionally, Mustangs defensive end Kyle Murphy (who had three sacks and two forced fumbles in the win) and tackle Sullivan Grosz (one sack, three tackles for loss) were honored by College Football Performance Awards as the Great West’s Week 7 selections.
The Cal Poly men’s golf team moved into a sixth-place tie with Loyola Marymount thanks to an afternoon round of 287 at the 13-team Bill Cullum Invitational at the Wood Ranch Golf Course.
Cal Poly shot a 291 in the morning round, for a 2-over 578 total.
Bryce Greeley led the Mustangs with rounds of 71 and 72. He’s tied for 14th at a 1-under 143, five strokes back.
Long Beach State is 11 strokes ahead coming into this morning’s final round.
