PLAY 1: CATHOLIC VS. RANDOLPH-MACON

 

PLAY 2: EMORY & HENRY VS. BRIDGEWATER

Description: After Randolph-Macon cut into Catholic's 14-0 lead early in the second quarter, the Cardinals returned the favor with a bit of agile magic from Lucas Morley.  The ODAC's leader in receptions needed just one hand to reach back and pull in a 15-yard touchdown pass from quarterback T.J. Tutone.  The score gave Catholic a 21-6 lead it would take into halftime and eventually turn into a 28-20 victory over the Yellow Jackets.   Description: After converting a 3rd-and-6 at his own 41 yardline with a 14-yard pass to Tyree Ward, Wasps' quarterback Kevin Saxton linked up with Ward on an identical play across the middle. This time, Ward slipped thru two would-be tacklers and out-ran a third as he streaked 45 yards to paydirt, tying the game, 7-7, midway thru the second quarter. That score began a string of 31 unanswered points en route to a 31-7 E&H win.
 

 

PLAY 3: GUILFORD VS. SHENANDOAH

 

PLAY 4: HAMPDEN-SYDNEY VS. WASHINGTON AND LEE

Description: Moments after Shenandoah mounted a seven-play, 72-yard scoring drive in 50-seconds to pull to within 34-24, Guilford running back De'Eric Bell returned the ensuing kickoff 92 yards for a score and sent the Quakers into halftime with a 41-24 lead in Saturday's shootout. The play was the third-longest kickoff return in Guilford history and helped Bell compile 326 all-purpose yards, a school record and fourth-highest total this year in NCAA Division III (pending other Saturday results).   Description: Already trailing Washington and Lee, 14-0, Hampden-Sydney cut into the Generals' advantage by half thanks to some good concentration from receiver Austin Perryman.  Quarterback Edgar Moore looked to be on his way to completing a strike to Perryman over the middle, but a W&L lineman tipped the ball at the line, changing its direction. Perryman reached back and spun in the air to haul in the wobbling pass, continuing his momentum towards the end zone to complete the 26-yard scoring play.
 
     

PLAY 5: WASHINGTON AND LEE VS. HAMPDEN-SYDNEY

   
Description: Washington and Lee moved to 5-0 for the first time since 1961 with its 35-28 win over Hampden-Sydney, and the scoring started thanks to a defensive play on the game's first drive.  Generals' defensive back Grey Reames did not move on H-SC quarterback Edgar Moore's fake, putting him in perfect position to intercept the ensuing pass.  He returned it 69 yards to the H-SC 8-yard line after Connor Kearney tripped him up. One play later, W&L punched in the first of five rushing touchdowns on the day for a 7-0 lead just 3:36 into the contest.
