WATCH: D-III player grabs interception off opponent’s back
There are great catches, and then there are catches that are great because of how incredibly weird or lucky they are. This one is definitely the latter.
Division-III Ithaca defensive back Skyler Kauf came up with his first career interception Saturday against Utica, plucking the ball off the back of a receiver who had lost track of it as he hit the ground and rolled over. Take a look in the video below:
