Brant Butler, Shenandoah, Gr., Receiver

Butler, a graduate student from La Plata, Md., posted the biggest receiving day in the ODAC on Saturday in terms of sheer statistics and game-changing plays as Shenandoah recovered from a 24-0 first half hole to a post a 34-27 victory over Bridgewater for the biggest comeback in school history. Butler posted career highs of eight catches and 177 receiving yards to go with a pair of touchdown receptions. His first score came early in the third quarter. He found a space inside the BC five-yard line where quarterback Steven Hugney connected with him for a 31-yard scoring play that brought SU to within 10 points at 24-14 with 11:25 on the clock. Butler's second touchdown proved to be the final score of the game with 0:27 showing on the scoreboard. Hugney lofted a pass towards the corner of the end zone where Butler battled the Eagles' defensive back and pulled in the 13-yard toss with one hand to give SU its first lead of the game at 33-27. For the season, Butler has caught 22 passes for 389 yards and three touchdowns.
