SPECIAL TEAMS
Jonah Hodges, San Diego
Donald Payne, Stetson
William Will, Dayton
Hodges needed just 22 minutes to score four consecutive touchdowns in San Diego’s 52-3 PFL victory against Davidson, Saturday. He finished the day with 11 carries for 176 yards despite leaving the game after his fourth touchdown midway through the second quarter. Hodges carried the ball on all five plays of a 21-yard scoring drive that was the first of his four touchdowns. On the next drive he had his two receptions (27 receiving yards) before scoring on a rush from six yards out. Hodges’ third touchdown was a quick strike as he scored on a 68-yard burst on the drive’s only play. He finished his day with a two-yard scoring rush at the 7:58 mark of the second quarter and did not attempt another rush the rest of the game.
Payne forced three drive ending turnovers as Stetson pitched a shutout over the final three quarters of its 31-21 nonconference victory at Brown, Saturday. He led Stetson with 15 tackles (10 solo), forced two fumbles and intercepted a pass as the Hatters held Brown to 151 yards offense over the final three frames. Brown scored on each of its first three possession, but Payne ended their fourth drive when he forced a fumble that was recovered by the Hatters. Brown started the second half with the ball, but their opening drive lasted just two plays as Payne forced another fumble and Stetson converted with a go-ahead field goal. Payne finished he day with the first of two Stetson interceptions that thwarted Brown’s final two drives.
Will tied the PFL’s career field goals record with his three-kick outing in Dayton’s 51-27 PFL victory against Morehead State, Saturday. He finished the day with 15 points, adding a 6-of-6 PAT outing to his 3-of-3 field goal effort. Will connected on a 20-yard field goal to give Dayton a 10-0 lead in the second quarter, then tacked on field goals of 38 and 49 yards on consecutive drives in the third. The 49-yard kick was the longest of his career and tied the longest kick in the PFL this season. Will’s final field goal also was his 49th career field goal, tying the PFL record held by Drake alumnus Billy Cundiff. He also handled kickoff duties for the Flyers, his 10 kickoffs averaging 61.4 yards with five touchbacks.
