played a major part in the Tigers 28-26 victory over Randolph-Macon
in the 119th edition of "The Game." Ikwild made 17 total tackles on

his last. After the Yellow Jackets scored a touchdown with 1:35 to
play, H-SC led 28-26. R-MC had two shots at a two-point conversion
thanks to a Tigers facemask penalty. Ikwild came up big on the
second attempt, standing up R-MC back Will McGhee short of the goal
line to preserve H-SC's lead. The win secured the ODAC title for
the Tigers and a berth in the NCAA Tournament. Ikwild currently
