CARDINAL NOTES
  • Jewell enters the week at 3-1 overall and 1-0 in Great Lakes Valley Conference play. The Cardinals will be searching for win No. 4 for the first time since 2015 and their first two-win conference season since 2017.  
  • Adam Callahan is the reigning GLVC Defensive Player of the Week after putting together one of the best performances in recent years. The junior linebacker totaled an NCAA-era single game record 18 tackles last weekend against Davenport while also grabbing an interception and forcing two fumbles. Callahan comes into week five ranked first in Division II in solo tackles per game, averaging 8.0 and is also 18th in total tackles with 9.5 per outing. 
  • The Cardinal defense once shined again, holding a nationally recognized Davenport team to 17 points and scoreless in the second half with two forced fumbles and two interceptions from Callahan and Jonny Williams. Jewell is currently second in the GLVC in passing defense and fourth in rushing defense. 
  • Jewell continues to lead the GLVC and is sixth in Division II in team sacks per game at 3.50 led by Javion Macias and Justin Endicott with 4.5 and 4.0 total, respectively. The Cardinals have averaged three or more sacks for at least 13 years each of their first four games. 
  • Tucker Griffin enters a big GLVC weekend, ranking second in the conference in completion percentage at 62% for an average 16.33 per game for 205.3 yards. The redshirt freshman has totaled 616 yards for five touchdowns through his first three games of action. 
  • The trio of Jalen Bethany, AJ Austene, and Beau Doughty have become a strong offensive option for the Cardinals through the air. The group has combined for 288 yards on 16 catches over the last three games, led by Bethany's 101 yard performance last week, for an average of 18 yards per reception.      
  • Keaundre McCullough didn't score a touchdown last weekend for the first time this season, but the redshirt senior continues to be the top target on opponent's scouting reports, having 90 or more rushing yards per game over his first four games. He leads the GLVC and is third in Division II in total touchdowns (9, total points scored (54), rushing yards (686), and rushing yards per game (171.5).
