BREVARD, N.C. – Brevard's Tyler Gregory was recognized as one of two wide receivers on D3football.com's Team of the Week following his 14-catch, 225-yard performance over the weekend against N.C. Wesleyan.
The Williamston, Ga., native established a new program-record for most receiving yards, topping the previous mark of 169 yards which was set by Bubba Craven against Greensboro (Sept. 16). Gregory reached triple-digit receiving yards for the first time in his career as the primary target of quarterback O'Shay Carter, who set Brevard's NCAA record for most passing yards in a game (499) in the win over the Battling Bishops.
The Tornados (4-5) eclipsed the 50-point mark for the second time this season in the win, which also includes a 63-point outing against Greensboro. It is only the second time in the program's 11-year NCAA history that Brevard has two 50-plus point outings. The last came in 2010, when Brevard posted 69 points against Southern Virginia (Sept. 25) and 53 against Edward Waters (Aug. 29).
Gregory heads into the final game of the season ranked second in six major receiving categories. Trailing only Craven among Brevard's top receivers, Gregory has scored four touchdowns in nine contests. He has amassed 499 yards on 41 receptions (4.6 yards/reception) while averaging 55.4 yards per game for the Tornados.
