INDIANAPOLIS - On the heels of an overtime victory over Leo, New Haven head coach Jim Rowland has been named the Colts/NFL Coach of the Week.
Rowland was nominated and selected for the award after the Bulldogs rallied to knock off Northeast 8 Conference rival Leo 35-33 in overtime on Friday.
Additionally, Rowland was honored for his impact on the team and with the New Haven community.
