Florida's Ciatrick Fason Selected a Cingular Wireless/ABC Sports
All-America Player of the Week Finalist ATLANTA, Sept. 26
/PRNewswire/ -- Florida junior running back Ciatrick Fason, who
rushed for a career-best 210 yards on 31 carries in the Gators' 20-
3 win over Kentucky yesterday, has been selected as a Cingular
Wireless/ABC Sports All-America Player of the Week finalist.
Fason's rushing total was the fourth best in school history. Fason
is one of four candidates for the All-America Player of the Week,
who are selected by a panel of ABC Sports and ESPN college football
analysts, led by John Saunders. The other finalists are: Clemson
kick returner Justin Miller, who returned two kickoffs for scores
and amassed an NCAA-record 282 yards on six returns in the Tigers'
41-22 loss at Florida State; Purdue quarterback Kyle Orton, a
previous Cingular/ABC Sports All-America Player of the Week award
winner, who completed 35 of 50 passes for 366 yards and four
touchdowns in the Boilermakers' 38-30 victory at Illinois; and
Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn, who connected on 17 of 32
passes for 266 yards and four touchdowns in Notre Dame's 38-3
victory over Washington. Who will be this week's winner is still
undecided and the final decision now rests in the hands of college
football fans nationwide. For the first time in college football
history, fans can now make the call on who they think deserves to
be the All-America Player of the Week with the power and ease of
wireless text-messaging. Cingular is making the voting open to
