ITHACA, N.Y. -- Cornell sophomore quarterback Jeff Mathews and senior place-kicker Brad Greenway have been named Ivy League Offensive Player and Special Teams Player of the Week, respectively, after their efforts in helping the Big Red football team to an Empire State Bowl victory over Columbia on Saturday. It is Greenway's second award of the year, while Mathews captured his first career Offensive Player of the Week award.

Mathews set school game records for passing yardage (521), passing touchdowns (five), completions (40), completion percentage (.870, 40-of-46), passing efficiency (217.97) and total offense (497) in leading the Big Red to a modern-day scoring record in a 62-41 victory over Columbia. He threw for 521 yards, becoming the first Cornellian and the third Ivy League player to surpass 500 yards. He fell just five yards short of the Ivy single-game mark. Mathews completed his first 13 passing attempts of the day, threw scoring passes of 6, 24, 47, 46 and 28 yards and didn't have a pass broken up or intercepted. It was Mathews' fifth game of at least 300 passing yards this season, a new Cornell record. His five touchdown passes ranks second in Ivy history in a game, while his 40 completions ranks 10th all-time.

Greenway was just as impressive in the kicking game in his final appearance at Schoellkopf Field, matching a Big Red record for kicking points in a game with 14. He set a new school standard with his 8-of-8 day on PATs and made field goals of 45 and 32 yards. The Ivy League's leading scorer also averaged 36.0 yards on his three punts while pinning two of those kicks inside the Columbia 15-yard line. Greenway had a pair of kickoffs go for touchbacks and averaged 62.8 yards on his 10 kickoffs, helping Cornell to a 20-yard advantage in starting field position.

Cornell will close out the 2011 season when it visits Penn on Saturday, Nov. 19 at 1 p.m. at Franklin Field in Philadelphia.
