BLUFFTON, Ohio - Wide receiver Micah Roberson (Ada.) had a record day as Bluffton University claimed a 28-20 win at Manchester on Saturday, Oct. 24, and he has been named the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference Football Player of the Week on offense. 

The sophomore hauled in 11 receptions for 139 yards and two touchdowns in the victory. His 11 catches helped him shatter the school record (62) for receptions in a season and his two touchdown catches tied the school record for a single season (10). Roberson currently has 71 receptions this year with three games to play. His 10.1 catches per game places him second in the nation for Division III and he is 10th in the country with 836 receiving yards.

Bluffton (4-3, 3-2, HCAC) will travel to Cincinnati to face in-state foe Mount St. Joseph at 1:30 PM on Saturday. The Beavers will be looking for just their second win over the Mount in the past 14 meetings.
