ATLANTA -- Antavious Lane is this week's GSU Student-Athlete of the Week after returning an interception 34 yards for a touchdown to help lead Georgia State to a 49-29 victory over East Carolina.

The redshirt freshman from West Palm Beach, Fla., also contributed five tackles and two pass breakups.
 
Lane was a key cog in a Georgia State defense that did not allow a touchdown to East Carolina (ECU scored its three touchdowns on a pick-six, fake field goal and blocked punt). He helped the Panthers hold ECU to 50 yards rushing, tying the third-lowest figure in program history, and 292 total yards for an average of just 3.7 yards per play.
 
His pick-six came in the fourth quarter and gave Georgia State a 42-16 lead with 13 minutes to play.
 
For the season, Lane is the Panthers' leading tackler with 14 stops, one tackle for loss, an interception, two pass breakups and a forced fumble. He has one of Georgia State's Sun Belt-leading five interceptions on the season.

Georgia State will return to the field on Oct. 15, traveling to Jonesboro, Ark., to face Arkansas State at 7:30 p.m. on ESPN.
