Uk's Derrick Locke Gets SEC Honor

Junior tailback Derrick Locke has been named the Southeastern Conference Special Teams Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Locke returned four kickoffs for 191 yards, including a 100-yard jaunt for a touchdown, in Kentucky's 31-27 win over in-state rival Louisville. He became the first player in UK history, and the third in SEC history, to have two 100-yard TDs in his career. He also had a 100-yarder last season vs. Western Kentucky.
Locke's 191 kickoff return yards broke the UK single game record of 185 set by Keenan Burton in 2006 vs. Louisville. Locke had 310 all-purpose yards in the game, including 47 receiving yards and 72 rushing yards and a TD.
Locke is the first Wildcat to be named the SEC Special Teams Player of the Week since Keenan Burton vs. Mississippi State in 2006. The SEC Rocks!
