Nobody wants to be the first team that a new program defeats, we're sure of it. And King's, which peaked in a multi-week playoff stay in 2002, has fallen on hard times recently and been in danger of being that team. Nick Kaijala and Ron Garrett teamed up to help make sure that didn't happen against Misericordia on Saturday. It's the D3football.com Play of the Week.
We solicit video of top plays from every Division III football program and this was our top clip.
