Good: Lewis Bond, WR
Defeating defenders from all over the field, Lewis Bond has utilized his speed and length well when Castellanos has time to throw. He’s caught 16 passes for 246 yards and four touchdowns already this year.
Great: Elijah Jones, CB
Given the fact that BC hasn’t been able to find a pass rush, Elijah Jones’ ability in coverage has stood the test of time, literally. Back in coverage for longer than most, Jones’ four pass breakups on the season are impressive.
Grand: Kyle Hergel, LG
The ‘other guard’ on the BC roster, Kyle Hergel has dominated since his transfer from Texas State. The big man has proven his skills translate to the Power Five level and is on his way to being a draft pick.
Wonderful: Thomas Castellanos, QB
Though the wins haven’t shown up with Thomas Castellanos leading the charge, his talent has been evident. He leads the team with 280 yards on the ground and has improved his passing ability with seemingly every rep.
