Lillard picked up the offensive player of the week honors after going 27 of 39 for a career high 387 yards and three three touchdown passes in the final 10:43 of regulation and overtime to overcome a 28-12 deficit to win 35-28 in overtime over Southwest Baptist last Thursday.
Calvin picked up the defensive player of the week honors after coming up with three first half interceptions in the game.
The Redhawks are in Columbia this Saturday to face the Missouri Tigers.
