Weekly Honors
Stonehill junior placekicker Perry Shelbred and sophomore running back Jarel Washington both collected weekly accolades from the Northeast Conference following their efforts in Stonehill's season-opening 33-30 double overtime comeback win at Bloomsburg. Shelbred scored 13 points as he converted four of five field goal attempts and his lone extra point try in helping Stonehill to the 33-30 double-overtime win. He delivered field goals from 24, 22, 37 and 31 yards for the Skyhawks, the latter of which came with 16-seconds remaining in the fourth quarter to knot the score and complete a comeback from an 11-point (27-16) deficit with under five minutes to play. Washington shined in his collegiate debut to collect his first NEC Rookie of the Week honor. He recorded 99 all-purpose yards, including 50 yards on 11 carries, and scored a pair of touchdowns down the stretch to key the Skyhawks comeback win. Washington collected a pass from sophomore quarterback Ashur Carraha near the sideline and raced 49 yards for a touchdown that pulled Stonehill back within three after the two-point conversion with 4:32 to play. He then clinched the Skyhawks win with a two-yard touchdown in double-overtime to end the game after Bloomsburg had scored a field goal on its second possession.
