Senior linebacker Tyler Smith (Poland, Ohio / Poland) capped another outstanding effort on the football field with a game-saving play during Homecoming. With Waynesburg clinging to a 14-13 lead over Thiel, the Tomcats lined up to attempt a game-tying extra point. Smith managed to penetrate the middle of the line and block the kick, preserving the one-point advantage and the victory.
 
The block capped an afternoon that saw Smith produce a team-high eight tackles, five of which were solo stops, and intercept his first pass of the season. Heading into week six of the season, Smith leads the PAC in total tackles (58) and total tackles per game (11.6). The veteran standout is also tied for second in the league with 8.5 tackles for loss.
