Congrats to Jackson and Nick for their PL honors this week.
Corvias Special Teams Player of the Week Jackson McLarty, Holy Cross, Fr., PK, Acworth, Ga./Mount Paran Christian McLarty connected on all three of his field goal attempts and led the Crusaders with 10 points in a 24-10 victory over Georgetown on Saturday. The freshman made kicks from 29, 31 and 24 yards to help the Crusaders snap a five-game losing streak.
Honorable Mention: Nick McBeath, Holy Cross, Sr., LB, Miami, Fla./Christopher Columbus McBeath finished with 13 tackles, 2.0 TFLs and a half sack in the Crusaders 24-10 win over Georgetown on Saturday afternoon. McBeath had a key tackle on a Georgetown 4th-and-1 play in the first quarter to keep the game scoreless. He led the defensive effort that limited the Hoyas to 181 yards of total offense.

Young McLarty has only played in a couple of games but I certainly am encouraged by the prospect of having a reliable place kicker for the next three years.

Coach Gilmore was criticized for having McLarty attempt a FG late in the Yale game. The outcome of the game was not in doubt at the time. The attempt hit an upright and was unsuccessful. My thought at the time (admittedly speculation on my part) was that Coach Gilmore wanted to give him an opportunity to get the feel of a real game and bring him along as our kicker for the next three years.
