Austin blocked a fourth-quarter punt and returned it 18 yards for a touchdown in the Hawks’ conference win. Moreover, the senior wide receiver is arguably the most potent offensive threat in the NEC and proved so last weekend. The Garfield, NJ native logged eight receptions for 108 yards and a receiving touchdown. He also ran the ball five times for 45 yards, including runs of 18, 14 and seven yards. On the season, Austin, who was pictured in a Monmouth University advertisement in the Sept. 26 edition of Sports Illustrated, leads I-AA in receiving yards per game (150.2). Currently, the senior has 29 receptions for 601 yards and five scores.
