Simcox, a freshman from Abingdon, Va., registered nine of the Wasps 27 points and was a key cog in Emory & Henry's come-from-behind victory against NCAA Division I FCS opponent East Tennessee State University. The Wasps' placekicker was not only 3-for-3 on extra points, but he drilled a pair of 48-yard field goals in the third quarter. His first boot -- the longest attempt of his career -- tied the game at 17-all early in the third quarter, while his second kick gave E&H its first lead of the game at 20-17 with 1:55 on the third quarter clock. The 48-yard makes are the third-longest made in ODAC history and are the longest made by an Emory & Henry kicker since Ross McKernan hit a 48-yarder against Randolph-Macon in 2005. Simcox is now 11-for-11 on extra points and 4-of-5 on field goals this season.
