Defensive Player of the Week
Tim Schumacher (Lebanon Valley / Sr., LB / Myersville, Md.) forced two turnovers in the second half that led way to the Dutchmen’s 31-24 upset win over Stevenson. The linebacker’s biggest play of the game came with LVC clinging to a 21-14 lead midway through the third quarter. With the Mustangs driving, Schumacher picked off Dan Williams at LVC’s 36-yard line and returned it 42 yards back to Stevenson’s 22-yard line. The interception led to a field goal that pushed their lead to 24-14. On the ensuing Stevenson possession, the senior stripped the running back and recovered the fumble at the Stevenson 39-yard line. The Dutchmen converted the fumble into a touchdown in the fourth quarter for a 31-14 lead in the fourth quarter. Schumacher added four tackles, one tackle for loss and one quarterback hurry in the win.
