Fayette, Mo. - Central Methodist University football garnered two Heart of America Athletic Conference Players of the Week, as junior punter Samuel Petrin and senior defensive lineman Will Miles picked up the honors, announced by the conference office Monday afternoon. 

Petrin earns his third Heart Special Teams Player of the Week award after converting both of his field goals, including a long of 41 in Central's 45-2 senior day win over MidAmerica Nazarene Saturday. He also nailed all of his extra points and recorded nine kickoffs for 482 yards, and six punts for 218 yards including one inside the MNU 10-yard line. The Bunnell, Fla. native also took home player of the week honors on Oct. 19 and again on Nov. 9. He finishes his junior campaign ranked No. 9 in the nation in field goal percentage (.900). 

Miles picked up defensive player of the week honors after collecting seven tackles, 3.5 for loss, and two sacks against the Pioneers. Miles also blocked a 38-yard field goal attempt by MNU midway through the first quarter to preserve the shutout. He also anchored a defense that gave up only 211 yards of total offense including 47 yards through the air. 

With the win, Central concludes 2020 with a 5-4 overall record and a 3-2 mark in the Heart South Division. Saturday's win marks the first time that the Eagles have posted an above .500 season record since the 2014 campaign when they finished 6-5.
