Jordan Toles Named MEAC Specialist of the Week

Dexter Carr Jr. recognized as Lineman of the Week

BALTIMORE, Md. (Sept. 18, 2023) -- Morgan State football senior defensive back Jordan Toles has been named MEAC Specialist of the Week, as announced by the conference on Monday afternoon. Senior center Dexter Carr Jr. was recognized as MEAC Offensive Lineman of the Week.

This marks the second MEAC weekly award for Toles, a Baltimore product, and the first for Carr. 

On Saturday, Toles, who was named MEAC Defensive Player of the Week last week, had the biggest play of the night against crosstown rival Towson. The Baltimore product blocked a field goal and returned the loose ball for a 53-yard score in the fourth quarter, which proved to be the Bears' only touchdown. It marked the second blocked field goal by the Bears this season.
