Burlington, Ont. – Marc Liegghio has been named Ontario University Athletics (OUA) Special Teams Football Player of the Week for the period ending November 25, 2018.

Marc Liegghio was in fine form once again for the purple and white in their quest for a second-straight undefeated season. The veteran kicker was called upon for three field goals on the day. While he only connected on two – including a long of 36 yards to close out the first half – there wasn’t much he could do on the third attempt, with the ball falling off the tee before he could get a foot on it.
In addition to his two field goals and two extra point efforts, Liegghio also punted five times for a total of 195 yards, which featured a long of 52 yards, as well as three kickoffs with an average of 45 yards per attempt.
