Week 8 Stats: 103 receiving yards, 7 receptions, 1 touchdown catch (game-winner at LIU)
Baker delivered a career-defining performance on Saturday, capping a seven-catch, 103 receiving yard outing with the game-winning touchdown catch in the Skyhawks’ thrilling 18-14 win at LIU. With just five seconds remaining, the sophomore wide receiver hauled in a 32-yard scoring strike from fifth-year signal caller Jack O’Connell to lift Stonehill to the comeback win over the Sharks, who entered the contest with an unblemished 3-0 record in NEC play. In addition to answering the call for his team, Baker became the first Stonehill receiver to surpass 100 receiving yards in a game. He is the second Skyhawk this season to earn Offensive Player of the Week distinction from the NEC, joining two-time honoree O’Connell.
