ST. LOUIS - North Dakota State center Karson Schoening was named Missouri Valley Football Conference Offensive Lineman of the Week by the league office Monday, Oct. 14. It is his first career player of the week honor.
Schoening, a junior from Rolla, N.D., played all 69 snaps for North Dakota State and graded out at 94 percent with zero missed assignments in the 46-14 victory over 10th-ranked Northern Iowa. He directed traffic for an offensive line that allowed zero sacks against a strong UNI front line that ranked sixth nationally in sacks.
NDSU rushed for 347 yards and averaged 6.8 yards per carry against the Panthers, who were allowing less than 100 yards per game on the ground.
A first-year starter, Schoening has helped the Bison to a No. 1 national ranking in tackles for loss allowed through six games while ranking among the top five in FCS rushing offense (288.0), third down conversions (.544) and scoring offense (41.2).
He is the second NDSU offensive lineman recognized this year. Right guard Zack Johnson was honored for his performance in the Week 2 win over North Dakota.
North Dakota State (6-0, 2-0 MVFC) is scheduled to host Missouri State (1-4, 1-1 MVFC) in the annual Trees Bowl game at 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 19.
