St. John Fisher University Athletics

St. John Fisher College’s Cody Miller (Spencerport/Spencerport), a sophomore on the football team, has been named the College’s Male Athlete of the Week for the week ending November 6, 2011.

Despite Fisher falling to nationally ranked Salisbury University 41-21 on the road this week, Miller played a key role in the Cardinals’ offensive attack.

Miller led the Cardinals in rushing when he contributed a career high 126 yards and one touchdown on 23 carries against the Sea Gulls. His touchdown came with 3:03 left in the 4^th quarter on a run from five yards out that pushed the Fisher deficit to within two touchdowns.

The sophomore running back is currently second on the team in rushing for the season with 483 yards rushing on 113 carries.

For the season, the Cardinals are now 7-2 overall and 5-1 in the Empire 8 Conference. They will return to action at 4 p.m. next Saturday when they travel to Hartwick College to take on the Hawks.
