Cottrell, Jenny Honored

Senior linebacker Justin Cottrell and sophomore quarterback Alex Jenny have been named to the Ivy League honor roll for their play in Saturday's 37-28 victory over Columbia. From the Ivy League release:

Senior linebacker Justin Cottrell (Somers Point, N.J.) was the foundation of the defense in a 37-28 victory over Columbia. The captain had eight total tackles, including five solo, as well as a sack. And his fourth-quarter interception enabled the Big Green to hold onto a 28-21 lead.

Dartmouth sophomore quarterback Alex Jenny (Wayland, Mass.) effectively moved the Big Green to a season-high five touchdown game, completing 14-of-23 passes for 189 yards without an interception. Jenny entered the game on the Big Green's second offensive series and enjoyed the most sustained action of his career.

A well-deserved honor for both.

The Ivy League rookie of the week was Columbia freshman receiver Nico Gutierrez, who had five catches -- including a couple of highlight reel grabs -- for 132 yards. With soph Austin Knowlin and Gutierrez the Lions have the foundation for what can be a terrific receiving corps over the next few years.
