MYERS MARCHING FORWARD Sophomore wide receiver Earl Myers has already surpassed his reception and receiving yard totals from his rookie year. Myers is currently second on the team with 15 catches and 213 receiving yards. NEW YEAR, SAME RESULTS FOR CERISANO After missing most of last year with an injury, senior Michael Cerisano is back in a familiar place - leading the Owls’ in tackles. He had 98 to lead the club in 2014 and is tops on the team with 41 through the first five games. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS WIN BY ONE It had been five years since the Owls were on the winning end of a one-point decision. Coincidentally, that last triumph also came over AIC on Oct. 22, 2011. In that game, quarterback Kevin Lynch hit wide receiver Willie Epps for their third touchdown connection of the day with just three seconds left, as the Owls rallied from down 12 with under five minutes to play to claim a 48-47 victory. A VERY BUSY SECONDARY The Owls totaled four interceptions as a team in the win over AIC - three by Justin Potts and one by Brandon Martin. The last time the Owls had registered four interceptions in a game was Oct. 25, 2014 in a victory at Stonehill. POTTS HAS A DAY FOR THE BOOKS Justin Potts became the first Owl in eight years to register three interceptions in a game with his performance against AIC. Kyle Sandberg had been the last to do so in the 2008 season opener, at win at West Virginia Wesleyan. POTTS EARNS WEEKLY HONORS Justin Potts was named as both the Northeast-10 Conference and the ECAC Defensive Player of the Week for his play in the win over AIC. JENKINS SCORING IN BIG SPOTS Devante Jenkins ranked among the NCAA leaders a season ago with 15 touchdown receptions in his first year as an Owl. This year, he continues to lead the club in all major receiving categories and his two of his three touchdowns have been big ones - the game-winning scores in triumphs over Stonehill and AIC.

CATAPANO PROVIDES A SPARK Raymond Catapano has seen plenty of time under center in his three years as an Owl and was selected to the Northeast-10 All-Rookie Team as a freshman. Last year, he came off the bench to engineer a victory against Pace, and he did the same in the win over AIC on Sept. 23. Catapano completed 3-of-4 passes for 40 yards and also rushed for 17 yards on the eventual game-winning drive against the Yellow Jackets. PARKS PROVES VERSATILE Running back Eli Parks totaled 107 all-purpose yards in the win over AIC with career-highs of 68 yards (12 carries) rushing and 39 yards (two catches) receiving. SPEEDING TO A DAY FOR THE AGES Wide receiver/kickoff returner Kendall Thomas had a night to remember in the win over Stonehill. He set a new Northeast-10 Conference record with 246 kickoff return yards. The old mark of 215 was set by Stonehill’s Tom O’Connell in 2001. Thomas had three returns greater than 40 yards, including a 98-yard touchdown return. IT’S BEEN A WHILE Kendall Thomas’ kickoff return for a touchdown was the first for an Owl since 2002, when Jeff Cupe last accomplished the feat. RECORD NIGHT WELL-RECOGNIZED Kendall Thomas received a host of honors following his performance against Stonehill. He was named the Northeast-10 Conference Special Teams Player of the Week, the ECAC Special Teams Player of the Week, and received the weekly Division II-III Gold Helmet Award from the New England Football Writers Association. TWO OWLS NAMED TO NE-10 WEEKLY HONOR ROLL Devante Jenkins and Ahmed Hourani were both named to the Northeast-10 weekly honor roll for their play against Gannon. IN SEASON OPENERS Following this year’s result, the Owls are 35-33-1 all-time in season openers. The 2016 season was the 69th in program history.

In addition, the Owls led in the fourth quarter of the losses to Assumption and Merrimack and were tied in the fourth quarter of the loss to New Haven.

HEADING DOWN THE ROAD TO PLEASANTVILLE After alternating losses and wins through its first five games of the year, the Southern Connecticut State University football team looks to level its record back out at .500 this weekend as it ventures to Pleasantville, N.Y. to take on Pace. Game time is set for 1 p.m. ALL-TIME VS. PACE Southern Connecticut has a 19-1 advantage in the all-time series between the schools. THE LAST MEETING WITH PACE A pair of fourth quarter touchdown passes from Raymond Catapano to Devante Jenkins served as pivotal plays in a 21-point rally as the Southern Connecticut State University football team downed Pace, 21-7, on Oct. 10, 2015 at Jess Dow Field. Robert Thomas also rushed for 108 yards on 20 carries and a touchdown in the game. LAST TIME OUT Despite career-best performances from junior quarterback Raymond Catapano and redshirt sophomore tailback Vochan Fowler, the Southern Connecticut State University football team lost to the University of New Haven on Saturday 38-20, for the Elm City Trophy. • Fowler had 103 yards on 16 carries for the Owls, while Catapano set new career-highs with 22 completions, 46 attempts and 264 passing yards. He also rushed six times for 40 yards and had one touchdown on the ground and two more in the air. Devante Jenkins had seven catches for 95 yards and a touchdown to lead the receivers. CATAPANO EARNS WEEKLY HONOR Raymond Catapano was named to the Northeast-10 weekly honor roll for his play against UNH. ETCHING HIS NAME IN THE RECORD BOOK With his 46 passing attempts against UNH, Raymond Catapano registered the fourth-highest single-game effort in that category in school history.

It was his first game as a collegian over 100 yards on the ground. THOMAS MAKING HIS WAY UP THE CHART Kendall Thomas registered 103 kickoff return yards last time out against New Haven and is now well within striking distance of Southern Connecticut’s single-season kickoff return yardage record. He’s currently tied for fifth all-time in that department with 437 return yards so far on the season.

MYERS MARCHING FORWARD Sophomore wide receiver Earl Myers has already surpassed his reception and receiving yard totals from his rookie year. Myers is currently second on the team with 15 catches and 213 receiving yards. NEW YEAR, SAME RESULTS FOR CERISANO After missing most of last year with an injury, senior Michael Cerisano is back in a familiar place - leading the Owls’ in tackles. He had 98 to lead the club in 2014 and is tops on the team with 41 through the first five games. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS WIN BY ONE It had been five years since the Owls were on the winning end of a one-point decision. Coincidentally, that last triumph also came over AIC on Oct. 22, 2011. In that game, quarterback Kevin Lynch hit wide receiver Willie Epps for their third touchdown connection of the day with just three seconds left, as the Owls rallied from down 12 with under five minutes to play to claim a 48-47 victory. A VERY BUSY SECONDARY The Owls totaled four interceptions as a team in the win over AIC - three by Justin Potts and one by Brandon Martin. The last time the Owls had registered four interceptions in a game was Oct. 25, 2014 in a victory at Stonehill. POTTS HAS A DAY FOR THE BOOKS Justin Potts became the first Owl in eight years to register three interceptions in a game with his performance against AIC. Kyle Sandberg had been the last to do so in the 2008 season opener, at win at West Virginia Wesleyan. POTTS EARNS WEEKLY HONORS Justin Potts was named as both the Northeast-10 Conference and the ECAC Defensive Player of the Week for his play in the win over AIC. JENKINS SCORING IN BIG SPOTS Devante Jenkins ranked among the NCAA leaders a season ago with 15 touchdown receptions in his first year as an Owl. This year, he continues to lead the club in all major receiving categories and his two of his three touchdowns have been big ones - the game-winning scores in triumphs over Stonehill and AIC.

CATAPANO PROVIDES A SPARK Raymond Catapano has seen plenty of time under center in his three years as an Owl and was selected to the Northeast-10 All-Rookie Team as a freshman. Last year, he came off the bench to engineer a victory against Pace, and he did the same in the win over AIC on Sept. 23. Catapano completed 3-of-4 passes for 40 yards and also rushed for 17 yards on the eventual game-winning drive against the Yellow Jackets. PARKS PROVES VERSATILE Running back Eli Parks totaled 107 all-purpose yards in the win over AIC with career-highs of 68 yards (12 carries) rushing and 39 yards (two catches) receiving. SPEEDING TO A DAY FOR THE AGES Wide receiver/kickoff returner Kendall Thomas had a night to remember in the win over Stonehill. He set a new Northeast-10 Conference record with 246 kickoff return yards. The old mark of 215 was set by Stonehill’s Tom O’Connell in 2001. Thomas had three returns greater than 40 yards, including a 98-yard touchdown return. IT’S BEEN A WHILE Kendall Thomas’ kickoff return for a touchdown was the first for an Owl since 2002, when Jeff Cupe last accomplished the feat. RECORD NIGHT WELL-RECOGNIZED Kendall Thomas received a host of honors following his performance against Stonehill. He was named the Northeast-10 Conference Special Teams Player of the Week, the ECAC Special Teams Player of the Week, and received the weekly Division II-III Gold Helmet Award from the New England Football Writers Association. TWO OWLS NAMED TO NE-10 WEEKLY HONOR ROLL Devante Jenkins and Ahmed Hourani were both named to the Northeast-10 weekly honor roll for their play against Gannon. IN SEASON OPENERS Following this year’s result, the Owls are 35-33-1 all-time in season openers. The 2016 season was the 69th in program history.

JENKINS NAMED ALL-REGION Devante Jenkins was recognized as well as an All-Region selection by Don Hansen’s Football Gazette for his play during the 2015 season.

In addition, the Owls led in the fourth quarter of the losses to Assumption and Merrimack and were tied in the fourth quarter of the loss to New Haven.
