NAPERVILLE — Carroll swept the offensive and defensive awards while North Central claimed the special teams honor as the College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin (CCIW) announced its Football Student-Athletes of the Week on Monday. 
 
Carroll senior Reed Breckheimer was recognized for his three-touchdown offensive performance in the Pioneers’ road win at Illinois Wesleyan, while teammate Amarrion Bridges earned defensive honors after recording two interceptions and two pass breakups. North Central senior Thomas Skokna captured the special teams award following a 79-yard punt return touchdown that helped the Cardinals clinch a share of their fourth straight CCIW title.
