Patrick Thomas,Catholic University,So.,Defensive Back

Thomas, a sophomore from Newtown, N.J., played a big part in the Cardinals second ODAC win of the season, which came in a 34-7 win over Shenandoah University.  The Cardinals held SU to 236 yards of total offense and forced five turnovers in the effort.  Thomas was responsible for two of those turnovers.  He got things started with an interception midway through the first quarter that stopped the Hornets as they tried to level the score at 7-all.  In the second quarter, Thomas came up from his cornerback position to make a stop at the line of scrimmage, but he also jarred the ball free from the runner and picked up the loose ball.  Three plays later, Catholic made good on the extra possession with a touchdown for a 13-0 lead.  Thomas finished the day with five total tackles (three solo) and also batted down a pass, one of six passes broken up by the CUA defense.  For the season, Thomas is third on the team with 32 tackles with a pair of interceptions.
