RUSTON, La. – Louisiana Tech sophomore wide receiver/punt returner Smoke Harris has been named the Louisiana Sports Writers Association (LSWA) Co-Special Teams Player of the Week.
 
Harris registered a 67-yard punt return, the longest of his career, in LA Tech's 24-17 conference-opening victory over North Texas. It was the longest punt return by a Bulldog since 2011 when Craig Johnson had an 82-yard punt return. Harris, a native of St. Francisville, La., returned the punt to the North Texas two-yard line which allowed Tech to score a 21-yard field goal. He finished the game with three punt returns for 81 yards.
 
LA Tech steps out of conference for the last time, playing at No. 23 NC State on Saturday, Oct. 2. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. CT at Carter-Finley Stadium. The matchup will be broadcast on ESPN+.
