PLAY 1: EMORY & HENRY AT CATHOLIC

 

PLAY 2: GUILFORD VS. RANDOLPH-MACON

Description: Emory & Henry led 29-24 late in the fourth quarter, but the Wasps found themselves in danger of going behind with Catholic knocking on the doorstep.  From 23-yards out, the Cardinals threw for the end zone, but cornerback Tre'von Lightfoot made a play on the back-shoulder throw, intercepting it and returning it 98-yards for a 37-24 lead with 3:02 to play. The 98-yard return is the longest for an E&H player since 1950.   Description: Leading 14-7 early in the second quarter, Guilford doubled its advantage over Randolph-Macon when De'Eric Bell returned a short punt 47 yards up the middle of the field for his third kick return score in as many games and his fourth of the season. He has two kickoff and two punt return touchdowns this season, the most kicks taken to the house since Chris McKinney had an ODAC-record five punt returns for touchdowns in 2001.
 

 

PLAY 3: HAMPDEN-SYDNEY VS. SHENANDOAH

 

PLAY 4: SHENANDOAH AT HAMPDEN-SYDNEY

Description: Shenandoah cut Hampden-Sydney's lead to 38-33 with 1:36 to play, and then recovered on the onside kick.  The Hornets covered 39-yards deep into H-SC territory, but the Tigers' defense stepped up with 49-seconds on the clock. Linebacker Jay Brooks jumped in the line of an SU pass at the 15-yard line and hauled it in to secure the Tigers' victory.   Description: At the outset of the fourth quarter, Shenandoah pulled to within 35-27 with a bit of misdirection.  As quarterback Hayden Bauserman walked away from center, the snap went directly to running back Cedrick Delaney.  He faked a sweep to the left with a pitch to backup quarterback Travis Barton, who found Bauserman with a two-yard TD pass after he had slipped past the defense into the end zone uncovered.
 
     

PLAY 5: WASHINGTON AND LEE VS. BRIDGEWATER

   
Description: Big plays have been a staple of Washington and Lee's offense all season, and that remained true on Saturday as the Generals' ran for 506 yards.  That effort included a 35-yard dash thru the line by Duncan Maxwell, who then out-ran the Bridgewater secondary to the end zone for a 21-3 lead midway thru the second quarter.  W&L would go on to post the program's 500th victory via a 45-23 scoreline.
