Wrublik Repeats as Football Performer of the Week
MONMOUTH, Ill. (09/28/2026) — For the second week in a row, Monmouth College running back Nate Wrublik (Lemont, Illinois) repeated as Midwest Conference football Offensive Performer of the Week on Tuesday.
Wrublik ran for 219 yards on 22 carries in Saturday's 56-7 home win over Ripon while scoring three touchdowns. He had 192 of those rushing yards in the first half, including a career-long 92-yard touchdown run. Wrublik scored to cap the first drive of the second half and with the Scots up 49-0, he and the starters sat the rest of the game. Wrublik helped the Scots to nearly 400 yards of rushing offense and just under 600 yards overall. Monmouth scored touchdowns on the first eight drives of the game with four rushing and four passing.
In two MWC games this season Wrublik has seven rushing touchdowns and 389 yards on the ground. He leads all Midwest Conference players in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns on the season.
