Tyler Vincent was named the Liberty League Co-Special Teams Performer of the Week by the league office today. It is the third consecutive week he has been so honored.

Vincent finished the season third in the conference in punting (34.5 yds/p) and fifth in receiving yards per game (54.7). Hobart ranked first in the Liberty League in net punting, as opponents returned just six of Vincent’s 39 punts this season for a grand total of 10 yards.
