MARIST FIRST TO WIN IN PFL PLAY | Marist became the first to win a PFL contest this season when it defeated Stetson, 38-17, in Week 2 action. It is the second consecutive year Marist has opened its league slate with a victory. The PFL regular-season race begins in earnest during Week 4’s action with five league contests scheduled, including the unbeaten Red Foxes who will host Jacksonville that week.

WILDCATS’ DUGGER RUNNING WILD | Davidson freshman running back has motored to a quick start, compiling 313 rushing yards in his first two collegiate games. His 156.5 rushing yards per game ranks fifth among all FCS runners this young season and it is second among rookie runners. Monmouth’s Pete Guerriero leads freshmen with 164 rushing yards per game.

SANDLER BOOTS A QUARTET OF FGs | Dayton freshman Patrick Sandler became the first FCS kicker with four field goals made in a game this season with his 4-for-5 outing against Southeast Missouri in Week 2. He leads all FCS kickers with five field goals made in the season’s first two weeks. Only 10 FCS kickers made four or more field goals last season.

CRUSADERS SURGING | Valparaiso’s offense has enjoyed a resurgence in the season’s first two weeks, its 480.5 total yards per game ranking 15th among FCS programs and leading the PFL. The Crusaders ran up 450 offensive yards against Montana in Week 1 before tacking on 511 offensive yards against Duquesne. Valparaiso averaged just 300 offensive yards per game last season, ranking 106th among FCS teams.

PFL’s 25TH CAMPAIGN | The 2017 season marks the 25th year for the Pioneer Football League – the nation’s only non-scholarship, football-only NCAA Football Championship Subdivision conference. The league will feature 11 teams each playing an eight-game schedule to determine the league champion and recipient of the automatic bid to the 2017 NCAA FCS Championship.
