Northwestern quarterback Jalyn Gramstad is this week’s GPAC/Hauff Mid-America Sports Offensive Player-of-the-Week. Gramstad, a junior from Lester, Iowa, led the Red Raiders to a 27-24 overtime win at NCAA Division I FCS foe, Drake University. Gramstad accounted 338 yards of the Red Raider offense, going 25-for-35 (71.4%) throwing the ball, with his lone touchdown toss being the touchdown that would lead to the 2-pt conversion that tied the game late in the fourth quarter. On the ground, he accounted for 114 net yards, his fourth 100-yard rushing game of his career. His legs proved to be the difference maker in the second half, twice running on third downs on drives that would then result in points.
