This week's Cincinnati Bell Athlete of the Week is senior running back Cory Jones. Jones entered Saturday's game against Syracuse University with eight carrier rushing yards. By the close of the RedHawks' 17-14 win over the Orange, the Ocean Springs, Mississippi native had totaled 125 yards on 12 rushes with his first two carrier touchdowns to help Miami improve its record to 2-3 entering MAC East Division play. Jones scored on runs of one and 13 yards and broke a career-long 48-yard scamper in the fourth quarter. The RedHawks travel to Kent State on Saturday for a 3 p.m. match up with the Golden Flashes. Congratulations to Cory Jones, our Cincinnati Bell Player of the Week.
