DB Chris Copeland, Sr., Colby

DB Zack Sloan, Jr., Centre
Sloan recorded five tackles (three solo), intercepted two passes, broke up another one and recovered a fumble in a 22-17 win against Austin. Sloan's first interception ended the Kangaroo's second drive of the day at the Centre 2-yard line. He later recovered a fumble at the Colonels' 32-yard line at the end of the first half and picked off his second pass at the end of the game to end Austin's comeback attempt at Centre's 15-yard line.

DB Conor Quinn, Sr., Trinity (Conn.)
Quinn intercepted two passes, each inside Trinity territory. He returned one 17 yards into Williams territory to set up the game-winning touchdown in a 20-17 victory.

Special teams

P Nathaniel Fitzsimmons, Sr., Trine
Fitzsimmons had five punts for a 45-yard average and a 44.8-yard net in Trine's 30-27 upset win against Franklin. Four of his punts landed inside the 20. One punt was fumbled and recovered on the 1-yard line which led to a Trine touchdown.

RET Caleb Urban, Jr., Trinity (Texas)
Urban's 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to start the second half turned a close game into a 21-3 lead for the visiting Tigers. Urban's first career return touchdown is the first for a Trinity player since his older brother, D3football.com All-American Jerheme Urban, returned a 91-yard kickoff for a score in the 2002 playoffs against St. John's.
