Clarksville, TN – Senior quarterback Jake Ryan, of the Austin Peay State University football team, has been named the Copies in a Flash APSU Athlete of the Week.
Ryan took OVC Co-Offensive Player of the Week honors for his Senior Day performance against Tennessee Tech. He was 27-for-38 for 310 yards and four touchdowns in the Govs 38-31 victory over the Golden Eagles in Ryan’s Austin Peay swan song.
 His four touchdown tosses were the most by a Govs quarterback since October 25th, 2008 (Trent Caffee). Over the course of his final four quarters as Austin Peay’s quarterback, Ryan moved into second place all-time in career completions (497) and became the third Gov to finish his career with more than 5,000 yards passing.
The Copies in a Flash APSU Athlete of the Week is selected by the APSU Sports Information staff each Tuesday during the academic year. Copies in a Flash, of Clarksville, sponsors the award.
