Bradley Dewberry from football and Shakita Cox from women's basketball have been named the Back To Health EIU student-athletes of the week.

Dewberry was part of a solid defensive effort that helped the Panthers lock up a 16th FCS playoff berth with a win over Eastern Kentucky.  He finished with a team-high eight solo tackles and had two of the team's five interceptions in the win over the Colonels.  Dewberry is second on the team with 69 tackles this season and was named a HeroSports.com FCS Stud of the Week.

Cox scored in double figures in both of EIU's games last week as the Panthers opened the season with four games in seven days with two games on the road.  Cox had 18 points at home against Loyola-Chicago to go along with five assists, six rebounds and three steals.  At Indiana State she led the Panthers with 11 points and seven rebounds.
