Notes: Taylor takes home a pair of conference awards after making arguably the biggest play in the GSC in 2017. With the game tied 24-24 with rival Valdosta State, Taylor was able to intercept a pass and return it all the way to the endzone. That would be the final score of the game, with the Lions earning the 30-24 win on the road. Taylor is the first person in league history to be named GSC Defensive Player of the Week and GSC Freshman of the Week for the same week.
