The weekly award winners have been recognized for their performances during Week 3 of the 2025 season.

PAC Offensive Player of the Week

His seven passing touchdowns are tied for the most in a single game in school history (Zack Hayward at Frostburg State, 9/1/12) and ties the conference record set in four games, most recently by W&J's Pete Coughlin vs. Carnegie Mellon on 10/8/16 ...  He also threw for 484 yards, the second-best single-game mark in school history and third highest in conference history behind only Hayward (535 at Frostburg State) and W&J's Jacob Adams (499 vs. Westminster, 10/26/19) while completing 31 of his 41 pass attempts for an impressive 75.6 completion percentage.

Crum Jr. had two interceptions, with his second coming in the final seconds to clinch Waynesburg's 35-27 victory over Hiram ... His first INT came late in the second quarter, giving the Yellow Jackets possession at the Hiram 17, which led to a Waynesburg TD and a 21-14 lead going into halftime ... With Hiram driving for a potential tying score in the fourth quarter, Crum Jr. picked off his second pass at the goal line with three seconds to play to end the drive and secure Waynesburg's first win of the year ...
