He made several TD saving tackles and caused a fumble when we were going in to score right before halftime. He also blocked an XP and had DeSales' biggest play (a short crossing route in the 3rd quarter that he turned into a 65 yard play to get DeSales inside our 10, which led to their score.

Trying to keep DeSales discussions out of this thread, but...
I read an article on DeSales before the season started. Said they were going to a "Two-Platoon" system. Meaning most, if not all players only go one way. I think they only have one player that plays both ways.
I guess their reasoning is that they will have fresh guys out there. They don't have all of the greatest athletes this year. So they figure if they have fresh guys out there, they can make up for not having the best players.
FYI, a Two-Platoon system in Division 3 is pretty good thing to have. Alot of teams don't have the numbers to do it.
