Tulsa, OK (Sports Network) - Tampa Bay wide receiver SEDRICK ROBINSON, Milwaukee quarterback CHRIS GREISEN and Spokane defensive back TRAVIS WILLIAMS have been named the JLS Ironman, Russell Athletic Offensive Players and Riddell Defensive Player of the Week, respectively, for Week 19 of 2010. In addition to these three awards, the AFL is also highlighting the player who makes the best Catch of the Week, the Playmaker of the Week and the Highlight of the Week. The Cutters Catch of the Week Award for Week 19 goes to Milwaukee wide receiver DAMIAN HARRELL, while Tulsa wide receiver JEFF HUGHLEY has been named the Playmaker of the Week. The Highlight of the Week award has gone to Spokane offensive lineman ED TA'AMU.

From seven receptions and 87 yards, Robinson caught two touchdown passes, both in the final three minutes of the first half for a 34-19 lead. The second half would just get better for the Storm, outscoring Tulsa by 21 points. Robinson also caught five kickoff returns for an incredible 102 yards. On the defensive side, Robinson accounted for two tackles in the 68-38 victory in opening round of the American Conference divisional playoffs.

Greisen (6-3, 220, NW Missouri St) had another explosive performance, solidifying his spot as a top ranked quarterback this season. Greisen is currently No. 1 in total passing yards (5146) and pass efficiency (128.2). Against Chicago, Greisen completed over 80 percent of his passes for the fourth time this season. In the 64-54 win by Milwaukee, Greisen threw for 312 yards and nine touchdowns, tying his season-high for touchdown passes. The Iron will be playing for the National Conference Championship title this week in Spokane.

RIDDELL DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK

Williams (6-1, 198, Missouri) nabbed his seventh interception of the season in the close victory over Arizona. In the dying seconds of the first half, Williams returned a 14-yard interception, ultimately leading to a field goal and 10 point advantage at the half for Spokane.
