Muhlenberg junior Marcus McClaine was named Centennial Conference football defensive player of the week.

McClaine set up two of the three touchdowns in the Mules' 21-0 shutout of Montclair State. On the Red Hawks' sixth offensive play of the game, he intercepted a pass and returned it 42 yards to the 16. Muhlenberg was in the end zone four plays later. In the third quarter, McClaine blocked a punt that was returned to the 2-yard line, setting up a touchdown on the next play.

The safety also contributed to another interception by hitting the quarterback's arm on a third-quarter pass that was picked off by a teammate. He was part of a defense that held Montclair to only 184 total yards.

The shutout win improved the Mules' record to 7-3 - their 13th consecutive season with at least seven wins.
