Touchdown Travis
Senior Travis Reid has one record down and is approaching a
couple more of modern era (1985-present) career records in
receptions for the Builders. His touchdown total now stands
at 22 after scoring receptions against Frostburg State and Emory
& Henry. He shared the record with Andre Ross (1991-94)
since the end of the 2006 season. Ross holds the career
reception yards mark of 2,544 and Reid is 540 yards away from
breaking that record. Reid, a Goose Creek, SC native had 48
receptions for 798 yards and seven touchdowns in 2006 when he was
named first team All-ACFC. He became the third Builder
receiver in the last 25 years to have 100 or more receptions with
his four receptions in the opener with Fairmont State. He
also became the second receiver in the last 25 years to have over
2,000 yards in receptions after his performance against Emory &
Henry. Reid has 118 receptions for 2,004 yards in his career.
Franklin
factors
Senior Kyle Franklin through the first three games is just ahead
of his career completion percentage at 53% (35-of-65). In his
career he is third in completion percentage in school (modern-era)
history at 51.6%. Franklin is tied for third in career
touchdown passes with 21 and is three away from Terrance Patrick
who threw 24 from 1999-2002.
Builder Block Party
Last year the Builders special teams were truly special as they
blocked six punts returning four of them for touchdowns and one for
a safety. Senior Tony Scott had three of those blocks and
started 2007 off with another one in the scrimmage game against
Guilford College. Scott blocked his way into the 2007 season
with a punt block in each of the first three games. His block
against Frostburg was returned by Lawrence Frost for the
game-clinching touchdown, while his block against Emory & Henry
was returned by Joe Bruce for the final score. Scott now has
11 for his career which is a school record.
Pickoffs
Approaching the midway point of their senior seasons, Tony Scott
and Franako Smith are battling for the career interception
record. Scott garnered his 11th pick in the home
victory over Frostburg State on September 8 to take the
record. Smith answered with his 11th pick at Emory
& Henry on September 22.
