CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Winston-Salem State University running back Jayvion Danzy has been named the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) Offensive Back of the Week following a career-best performance in the Rams' 43-14 victory over Bluefield State on Saturday, Oct. 17. 

The Michigan native rushed for a career-high 182 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries. Danzy broke free for touchdown runs of 39 and 64 yards, helping power the Rams' offense to its first victory of the season.

Danzy has continued to establish himself as a key contributor to the Rams' offense, showing consistent improvement throughout the season. His performance against Bluefield State highlighted his explosiveness and ability to create game-changing plays in the ground game.
