More news about: Knox

Ilir Emini apparently makes many amazing catches, but this one is the most amazing play we've seen. Watch how the Knox wide receiver keeps the ball in play after a deflection, then scooches on his back to get under the ball and make the grab. Then share it with your friends! 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.

Week 4 Play of the Week finalists

Here are some great plays which deserved extra mention:


Any other week, this would be hands-down the top play and is still worthy of getting a lot of views and shares. Here, Hiram's Tevin Weaver goes up and makes an amazing one-handed interception.

There were a couple of great plays in the UW-Whitewater/Morningside game, but no so spectactular as this touchdown catch by tight end Tony Gumina. Keep an eye on where the ball goes before it gets to him.

In a game with 99 points, it was the last two that decided it. Great play call by Wesley and great execution by Joe Callahan to find Xavier Allen for the two-point conversion.

Screen pass? Maybe all-over-your-screen pass. Deontez Alexander takes the screen and refuses to give up on the long way to the end zone against Earlham.
