A Texas Tech football player has received a weekly conference honor.

Tech junior tight end Jace Amaro has been named as the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week.

The recognition for Amaro comes after Tech’s 37-27 win at West Virginia, where he brought in nine catches for 136 yards and two touchdowns.

This is the first time this season that Amaro has brought in a weekly conference award.

The Red Raiders are on the road again this weekend at Oklahoma. Kickoff is at 2:30 p.m.
