 MONMOUTH, Ill. —
Monmouth College quarterback Alex Tanney (Lexington, Ill./Lexington)
tied the school record for touchdown passes last weekend and earned
the Midwest Conference Offensive Performer of the Week honor.
Tanney’s six touchdown passes in the Fighting Scots’ 41-20 win over
Carroll tied him with his older brother Mitch for the most TD tosses
in a single game. The sophomore signal-caller found a different
receiver for each of his scoring throws. Tanney, who leads the
conference with 16 touchdown passes in four games, completed 28 of
his 39 attempts for 317 yards and hit 10 different receivers en
route to the record-tying day as Monmouth stayed unbeaten and
improved to 4-0.
Mitch had set the standard for TD passes against arch-rival Knox in
2004.
