This week's Missouri Valley Football Conference Offensive Lineman of the Week is Youngstown State's Jordan Velez.

OG Jordan Velez, Senior, 6-4, 305, Kenilworth, N.J. (St. Joesph Regional)
Velez didn't start but came on during first quarter and played a big part in the Penguins' 35-18 win over Southern Illinois. Playing in his final game at YSU, he came in to play on the second series at left guard and played the remainder of the contest. The Penguins had 268 yards rushing on 53 carries against the Salukis while tailback Jaleel McLaughlin rushed for 185 yards and three scores, two of which were 30-yards plus that were set up by Velez blocks.
