Former Greenville Comets football player Jacob Hall has had an exciting conclusion to his college football career at Azusa Pacific in California.
The Cougars claimed a share of the Great Northwest Athletic Conference championship with a 42 to 35 win at Central Washington on Saturday.
Azusa Pacific finished 7-1 in league action and was invited to the NCAA Division II playoffs. The Cougars play at Tarleton State in Texas Saturday afternoon.
Hall, the team’s extra point-field goal kicker and punter, converted 4 extra points against Central Washington.
Hall was named the conference’s special teams player of the week when on November 3 he kicked a 23-yard, game-winning field goal, in overtime, to beat Humboldt State 20-17.
The week before, Hall kicked the game-winning extra-point kick, with 17 seconds to play, as his team edged Western Oregon 7-6.
Jacob is the son of Alison and Norm Hall.
