Ex-Terps, current WKU QB named C-USA Offensive Player of the Week following brilliant performance
It’s safe to say the former Maryland quarterback Tyrrell Pigrome is thriving at his new home.
Over the weekend Pigrome was named the Conference USA Offensive Player of the Week after leading Western Kentucky to a 20-17 victory over Middle Tennessee on Saturday. It was the Hilltoppers’ first win of the 2020 season.
