PLAYERS OF THE WEEK
OFFENSE
Ryan Hubbard, Davidson
Sophomore, Wide Receiver
Charlotte, N.C. (Charlotte Christian HS)
Hubbard caught five passes for 172 yards and three touchdowns to lead Davidson to a dominating 44-6 PFL South victory against Austin Peay. His first two pass receptions single-handedly put the Wildcats out front for good in the game�s first eight minutes. Hubbard�s first reception was a 55-yard touchdown catch with just 1:06 gone in the first quarter. His second touchdown catch was a 79-yard back breaker that gave Davidson a 15-0 lead with 7:08 remaining in the period. Hubbard�s 172-yard effort was the third-best performance by a I-AA wideout in Saturday�s contests.

DEFENSE
Mike Jones, Valparaiso
Senior, Strong Safety
Lake Zurich, Ill. (Lake Zurich HS)
Valparaiso and St. Joseph�s (Ind.) combined for nine turnovers in their contest and Jones had a hand on three of them. He finished the game with 10 tackles, one tackle for loss, a forced fumble, two fumble recoveries and a pass breakup. His fumble forced was recovered by the Crusaders and led to a touchdown, narrowing the margin to 32-15. However, that effort wasn�t enough as Valparaiso lost the non-conference tilt, 34-21, to St. Joseph�s.

SPECIAL TEAMS
Brad Smith, Davidson
Junior, Placekicker
Danville, Pa. (Bloomsburg Area HS)
Smith made both his field-goal attempts, including a career-best 43-yarder, and made all three PATs to scored nine points in Davidson�s 44-6 PFL South victory against Austin Peay. Smith made his career-long despite sloppy field conditions at Richardson Stadium which had been soaked the night before by heavy rain. Smith enters week seven as the nation�s fifth-most prolific field-goal kicker, averaging 1.8 field goals made per game.
