ADRIAN, Mich.—Adrian College place kicker James Spencer of Troy (Troy HS) has been named MIAA Special Teams Player of the Week for the sixth time in his career.

Spencer hit field goals of 24 and 25 yards in the Bulldogs’ 28-20 loss at Hope on Saturday and hit both of his PAT attempts.

On the season, Spencer is 5-for-11 with a long kick of 43 yards. On kick-offs, he averages 45.3 yards per attempt and has one touchback.
