Columbiana, Ohio / Crestview

Hill completed 22-of-38 passes for 332 yards and four touchdowns in the Yellow Jackets’ 38-0 win at Grove City Saturday, giving him a PAC-high 18 through the season’s first six weeks. The junior from Columbiana, Ohio has posted three-straight games of 300-plus passing yards and at least three touchdown passes.

PAC Defensive Player of the Week
Sean Christofferson • Senior Lineman • Westminster College

Christofferson registered season highs with nine tackles (7 solo 2 assist) and 2.5 sacks to go along with 3.5 tackles for loss in Westminster’s 27-24 come-from-behind Homecoming victory over Carnegie Mellon Saturday afternoon. The senior from New Wilmington, Pa. was credited with a key second down stop at the Titans’ 49-yard line as Westminster was holding a three-point advantage over a driving Carnegie Mellon offense with just 1:30 remaining. Christofferson’s 5.5 sacks and 10.5 tackles for loss this season rank him second in the league in each category.

Wiegand totaled 239 all-purpose yards and scored three touchdowns in Saturday’s 45-21 win over Thomas More.

It was the first kickoff returned for a touchdown by a President since Aaron Krepps (83 yds.) on Sept. 10, 2005.
