Powell-Fields Named PSAC East Defensive Player Of The Week
LOCK HAVEN, Pa. (Sept. 16, 2012) – Senior defensive back
Antonio Powell-Fields (Hempstead, N.Y.) of the LIU Post football team was named this week's PSAC East Defensive Player of the Week for his efforts that led to a 45-10 win for the Pioneers over Cheyney University.
Powell-Fields tied for a team-high as he made seven tackles, including six solo stops and a tackle for loss, and also had an interception and a fumble recovery in LIU Post's 45-10 win over Cheyney. His pick came in the fourth quarter and it led to a long Pioneer drive that spanned over six minutes and ended with a field goal. His fumble recovering came in the second quarter at midfield and it helped lead to a shirt in field position that one possession later would lead to the Pioneers blocking a Cheyney punt and eventually scoring just before halftime to go up by 19 points.
