FOREST, Va. --- Four week and four new winners in the ODAC Football Play of the Week Fan Poll. The 81-0 victory over Greensboro College not only resulted in numerous school-records for Ferrum College, but it also features this week's fan poll winner in the 60-yard catch-and-run score from Zack Clifford to Nick Pearce.

Ferrum set several records in its victory over Greensboro, including points scored in an 81-0 shutout. Clifford was in on the standard-breaking as well as he fired four touchdown passes on the way to being the first Panther student-athlete to earn an ODAC weekly honor in any sport. One of his scoring throws covered 60 yards on a connection with Pearce. It didn’t take long for Pearce to beat man-coverage over the middle on a deep cross, and Clifford didn’t miss as he hit Pearce in stride 30 yards down field. Pearce took it the rest of the way for a 22-0 lead early in the second quarter.

This week's two nominees were voted on by more than 100 ODAC football fans and garnered more than 2,900 impressions, views, and interactions on the ODAC website, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. Clifford-to-Pearce earned 73.5-percent of the fan vote.
