A Trinity (Texas) pass hits off of its intended receiver, lands on the back of Cory McGonigal and is grabbed by Cory's twin brother, Chad McGonigal for the interception. It's the D3football.com Play of the Week.

Week 9 Play of the Week finalists

Here are some great plays which deserved extra mention:


George Fox quarterback Grant Schroeder evaded the pass rush from Lewis & Clark and launched the ball to the end zone, where Lane Hadley brought it in on the final play of the first half for a touchdown. It gave the Bruins a 14-7 lead in a game they went on to win 42-15. 
This play won the fan vote.
 

Dom Todarello answers UW-River Falls' first touchdown of the game with a 98-yard kickoff return. His score tied the game at 7-7 in a game which UW-Oshkosh went on to win 31-28.
 

On the first drive of the game, Devauntay Ellis sets the tone, going through a defender and leaving him holding only one of Ellis' cleats as Ellis scampers away to a 55-yard touchdown run. His score put Delaware Valley up 7-0 and the Aggies went on to beat Lebanon Valley 35-0.
 

Nick Strausbaugh catches the second of his four touchdowns for Wooster on Saturday. Watch as he holds off the defender and makes the grab, triple-clutching it before controlling it on the way down. Wooster defeated Kenyon 51-41.
