ST. LOUIS — South Dakota State kicker/punter Hunter Dustman was honored Monday as the Missouri Valley Football Conference Special Teams Player of the Week.
Â
Dustman scored eight points and averaged 44.5 yards on four punts as part of an all-around solid performance by South Dakota State in a 38-7 road win at North Dakota on Nov. 9. He put the first Jackrabbit points on the board with a 32-yard field goal late in the first quarter, then kicked five extra points in the middle two quarters. Dustman landed two of his four punts inside the UND 20-yard line with a long of 51.
Â
In addition, Dustman negated the Fighting Hawks' return game by recording touchbacks on six of his seven kickoffs.
Â
The weekly award was the fifth of Dustman's career after previously earning the honor twice during both the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
Â
Third-ranked SDSU closes out the home portion of its schedule Saturday by hosting Southern Illinois. Kickoff is slated for 2 p.m. at Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium, with Senior Day recognition beginning at approximately 1:40 p.m.
