Cougar Football Earns Fourth D3football.com Team of the Week Honor with Garza

| By:
MORRIS, Minn. – Juan "JT" Garza III of the University of Minnesota Morris football team has been named to the D3football.com Team of the Week for Week 10 of the 2026 season, as announced Tuesday, Nov. 10.
 
This is the fourth time this season that Minnesota Morris has earned a Team of the Week honor, setting a program record for the most selections in a single season. Garza joins Dylan Young, Damaris Fields, and Arain Saenz, who also earned the honor this season.
 
Garza was named the Week 10 Cornerback of the Week. The senior defensive back helped lead the Cougar defense to a 28-14 win over Crown. He recorded two interceptions, the first of which stopped the Polars from driving at the end of the first half. His second interception set up the Cougars for a touchdown at the Crown 24-yard line. Garza also tallied four tackles and a pass breakup.
 
The Cougars wrap up their season on Saturday as they host the University of Northwestern at 1 p.m.
