Football

Bruin running back totaled 34 carries for 167 yards and two touchdowns at Oregon.

Redshirt senior running back Demetric Felton of the UCLA football team has been selected the UCLA Student-Athlete of the Week, presented by Ready, for Nov. 16-22.

Felton had a career game in the Bruins' narrow loss at No. 11 Oregon Saturday. The Temecula, Calif. native recorded 34 carries for 167 yards and two touchdowns – all career highs – and returned a career-best five kickoffs for 105 yards. The dual threat out of the backfield also registered a reception for the 15th game in a row. Felton's 278 all-purpose yards in the contest represent the highest total in the Pac-12, and fifth-best nationally, this season. He has now posted back-to-back 100-yard rushing games and his 331 yards on the ground match his 12-game 2019 mark.

This is Felton's first UCLA student-athlete of the week award of the season and of his career.
