3/C Brennan Holt went above and beyond on Saturday in the
@USCGA_Football
road win. He was 7/7 on PAT's, kicked a game tying field goal with 3 seconds left to send the game to OT and also made a TD saving tackle on the Kick Off Cover unit.
Our first 2020 salute is to Ensign Kane Alletzhauser. He is off to St. Petersburg, FL Kane was a true jack of all trades over the past four years. He played defensive end and also was a Hawk on our Punt team, a pretty rare combination in the sport of football.
