Decoud Named Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week

SAN FRANCISCO – Oregon State cornerback Treston Decoud was named as the Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week as announced by the conference Monday morning.

Decoud recorded the first interception of his Oregon State career in the first quarter of Saturday's 37-7 win over Idaho State returning it 13 yards. Midway through the third quarter, Decoud picked off his second pass of the afternoon returning it 75 yards for a touchdown.

It was OSU's longest interception return since Terrence Carroll's 79-yarder vs. USC in 2000, and was the Beavers' first pick-six since Caleb Saulo's against San Jose State on Sept. 19, 2015.

The senior, from Covington, La., finished the day with four tackles, two interceptions, two pass breakups and one touchdown.

Decoud is the first OSU player to record two interceptions in a game since Tyrequek Zimmerman in the season-opener against Portland State in 2014.

The Beavers are set to host the back end of a two-game homestand this Saturday when they face Boise State at 12:30 p.m. on FS1. Tickets for this week's game are still available at beavertickets.com.
