ATLANTA, GA- Millsaps wide receiver and return man Rashad Sims has been named the Southern Athletic Association (SAA) Special Teams Player of the Week for his efforts versus Rhodes. 

Sims took a fourth-quarter kick off 93 yards for a score to get the Majors on the scoreboard on Saturday. Sims took the kick-off along the far sideline, picked up a key block and cut across the field to score up the near sideline. 

Rhodes tried repeatedly to kick away from the talented sophomore but Sims routinely fielded the short kick-offs and gave the Majors good field position all game long. For the day, Sims averaged 32 yards per return. 

Sims also added six catches for 38 yards as a receiver on Saturday against the Lynx.
