Statistical spotlight
Each week during the regular season we look at some of the key statistical performances from the weekend in Division III football, highlighting one per region. Adam Anderson scored six touchdowns for Whitworth in the Pirates' 40-29 win against Pacific Lutheran. The junior ran 31 times for a career high 217 yards. He scored three times in the second quarter, once in the third and two more times in the fourth quarter to help rally the Pirates from a 29-21 third-quarter deficit. In a tight game, three of his touchdowns cut Whitworth's deficit to two points and two more gave the Pirates a lead. Albright junior linebacker Andrew Kibler had seven tackles, two of which were for a loss, one forced fumble, an interception and a sack in the Lions' 31-14 win at Lebanon Valley. As a whole the Albright defense forced four turnovers and limited the Dutchmen to a season-low 115 yards rushing. North Central's defense got three first-half takeaways and the offense turned each of them into points as the Cardinals scored 24 second-quarter points en route to a 30-7 win. Kevin Vaughn helped Josh Vogelbach get a lot closer to the Division III all-time passing record, as the senior receiver caught 15 passes for 221 yards for Guilford in a 55-24 loss to Randolph-Macon. He has scored two touchdowns in each of his past four games. Vogelbach is within 100 yards of the record. Don't forget to check out the weekly ATN podcast and more weekend coverage. | ||

Hawks in the hunt Around the Region It's coming a year or two later than expected, but Huntingdon is finally having its breakout season. At 8-0 with Hampden-Sydney coming to town and a rivalry game to follow, the Hawks have a chance to get an NCAA playoff bid. Jason Bowen checks in on them in Around the South. The run for RPI in its Dutchman Shoes rivalry with Union isn't unprecedented, but it sure has been a long time since the Engineers held the trophy for three years running. But the Liberty League race isn't over for RPI. Adam Samrov has more in this week's Around the East. There's this school that D3football.com tracks that isn't Division III at all. In fact, they're not even a part of the NCAA. But it's home to one of the most unique experiences in the Division III universe: The Apprentice School in Newport News, Va. What's this program all about? Ryan Tipps explains in Around the Mid-Atlantic. Plus, the little receiver putting up a big season for Kalamazoo in Around the Great Lakes. That and more in this week's Around the Region. | ||
