MORAVIAN’S
CHRIS JACOUBS NAMED TO D3FOOTBALL.COM TEAM OF THE WEEK
STERLING, VA --- Sophomore
tailback Chris Jacoubs (Fair Haven, NJ/Rumson-Fair Haven HS) of the
Moravian College football team has been named to the D3football.com Team of the Week
for his performances Saturday in Moravian’s 27-20 victory at Lebanon Valley College.
Jacoubs,
who was named the MAC and ECAC Southeast Offensive Player o the Week for the second consecutive
week, had his second straight 200-plus yard rushing afternoon with 257 yards on 36 carries
and three touchdowns in Moravian’s victory at Lebanon Valley. Jacoubs,
who had touchdown runs of 53, four and eight yards, also caught a 16-yard touchdown pass
to account for all four Greyhounds touchdowns in the game. Jacoubs,
who was also named a Co-National Offensive Player of the Week by Don Hansen’s National
Weekly Football Gazette, had a chance to tie the school record of five touchdowns in
a game when he scampered into the end zone with 14 seconds remaining in the third quarter,
but a holding penalty nullified the score.
Jacoubs,
who moved into ninth all-time at Moravian with 1,663 yards in just 13 career games, also
owns the school record for a single game with 319 yards at Albright College last November. Jacoubs has
three of the top five games in school history and has run for more than 100 yards in
six of his nine career starts. In just three games this season, Jacoubs has
run for 612 yards on 91 carries with seven touchdowns.
Moravian, which is 3-0 overall
and in the MAC, is slated to return to action on Saturday, October 2nd in another MAC
game versus King’s College at Steel Field in Bethlehem. Kickoff is slated for 1:00
p.m.
