Devontae Jackson becomes the second straight player from West Georgia to earn this award. After Albany State scored a touchdown to tie the game, Jackson returned the ensuing kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown. This proved to be the difference in the game, as the Wolves won by four points. It’s the first kickoff return for a touchdown in the GSC this season. The sophomore is UWG’s record holder for kickoff return average.
