RENO, Nev. - Wolf Pack running back Herschel Turner was named Old Trapper Mountain West Offensive Player of the Week Monday morning, following his career day in Saturday's 30-13 win at UTEP.

After posting his first-career 100-yard rushing game and a career-high 111 yards against Air Force September 26, Turner outdid himself Saturday. The third-year running back carried 19 times for 192 yards including a 72-yard touchdown in the third quarter which put Nevada up 23-7 and served as the knockout blow to Miner comeback hopes.

Earlier in the contest, Turner ripped off a 49-yard run into UTEP territory leading to Joe McFadden's second field goal with just over a minute left in the first half which gave the Wolf Pack a 13-7 halftime edge.

For the game, the Wolf Pack rushed for 274 yards and Turner came up just eight yards shy of being the Pack's first 200-yard rusher since 2017. Through Week 6, Turner leads the Mountain West with 7.3 yards per carry and is fourth in rushing yards at 426.

Nevada (2-3, 1-1 MW) continues Mountain West play this weekend traveling to North Dakota State (5-1, 2-1 MW) for a 4 p.m. PT kickoff.
