TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Indiana State football's Jayden Reed was named this week's Hannig Construction Indiana State Student-Athlete of the Week as announced by the athletic department on Monday afternoon.
 
Reed recorded a career-high eight receptions for 129 yards and two touchdowns as the freshman wide receiver made his MVFC debut a memorable one against No. 8/7 North Dakota. Reed hauled in touchdown receptions of 20 yards and 33 yards, and he added a 49-yard reception in the third quarter that directly led into Aaron Ball's 10-yard TD rush on the next play.
 
Reed's 20-yard TD score came on the Sycamores' opening drive of the game, while his 33-yard TD catch came in the fourth quarter to cut the Indiana State deficit down to 42-28.
 
The St. Louis, Mo. native posted the most receptions by a Sycamore wide receiver since 2024, while his two-touchdown game was Indiana State's first receiving two-TD contest of the season. His 100-yard receiving effort also marked just the third 100-yard receiving game by a Sycamore freshman since 1980 (according to current records on hand).
 
Reed currently sits in the top 10 in the MVFC in all major statistical receiving categories including receptions (19 – T-5th), receiving yards (275 – 9th), and receiving touchdowns (4 – T-4th).
