Robert Morris University Athletics

The fifth member of the football squad to be bestowed the Giant Eagle RMU Male Student-Athlete of the Week honor of the 2015 fall season is redshirt freshman wide receiver Kyle Buss. In a 21-9 victory over East Tennessee State (11/7) at Joe Walton Stadium, Buss hauled in nine receptions for 138 yards and a touchdown to help lift the Colonials to victory. Buss, a native of Mechanicville, N.Y., posted an 84-yard touchdown reception with 3:18 to play that gave Robert Morris a 14-9 advantage and put the Colonials in front for good. Thanks to his performance against the Buccaneers, Buss established RMU freshman single-season records for both receptions and receiving yards, as he enters action this week with 43 catches for 661 yards. He also became he fourth player in school history to post at least three 100-yard receiving games in a season.
