Game Two
 
For the second week in a row, a University of Saint Francis product is selected for our POW honors.  This week it's WR Luther Stroder.  Stroder was instrumental in the Freedom's strong play in the first half.  He had three touchdown receptions to help give Fort Wayne a 26-23 lead at halftime.  The second half saw him deliver a
bone-jarring block, during an Eric Hooks run, that re-ignited the Freedom fans!

Receiving:  7 catches for 102 yards and 3 TDs
Kick Returns:  4 for 83 yards

Game Three
 
POW honors have been awarded to WR Glenn Johnson this week.   In a tough loss to the Raptors, Johnson managed six catches for 68 yards and two touchdowns.   His six catches accounted for almost half of the teams completions on the night.   Johnson has shown that he is a solid option for the Freedom this season.


Receiving:  6 catches for 68 yards and 2 TDs
Kick Returns:  1 for 2 yards

Game Four
 
Yet another St. Francis product has earned our POW honors. This week's award has been given to Alf Fertil. Fertil stepped up and played center, a position he's never played before, during the Freedom's game in Muskegon. He also spent time at his usual position of nose tackle to help out the defensive line.

Game Six
 
This week, choosing the POW was not as clear cut as in other weeks. After much deliberation K Justin Hoover has been awarded POW honors for game six.

PAT's:  7-7
FG's:  2-2
