The Arena Football League announced June 1 that Spokane Shock and former EWU receiver Raul Vijil, as well as linebacker Kevin McCullough have been honored with league awards.
Following his performance in Spokane's 67-57 victory over top-ranked Jacksonville, Vijil was selected as the Russell Athletic Offensive Player of the Week. Vijil recorded 11 receptions for 130 yards and scored an AFL season-high seven touchdowns.
McCullough was honored with the Cutter's Catch of the Week for his first quarter interception. With the Sharks ahead 14-7, McCullough leaped and made an acrobatic one-handed interception of an Aaron Garcia pass. After regaining his balance, he eluded one defender, hurdled another and dove across the goal line for a touchdown.
