Jackson Earns National Honor Following Two-Interception Performance 

BREVARD, N.C. - Senior defensive back Quentin Jackson was named to the third D3football.com Team of the Week of his Tornado career following his two-pick performance in BC's 14-3 triumph over Maryville this past Saturday. 

The selection marks Jackson's third D3football.com Team of the Week selection alongside a pair of USA South Football Defensive Player of the Week honors and a 2018 USA South All-Conference First Team honor. The former dual-sport athlete at BC also earned numerous Track & Field honors, including a first-place finish in the 4x100 relay at the 2019 ECAC Track & Field Championships.

Jackson, a Columbia, Maryland native, produced two key interceptions for BC's defense in the victory. Jackson's second interception was returned 26 yards, setting up the Tornado offense to score their second touchdown of the day and put the contest essentially out of reach, as BC pulled through with the 11-point triumph.

With the two picks on Saturday, Jackson continues to climb closer to the Brevard College all-time record for career interceptions. Jackson has secured nine picks over his Tornado career, ranking second all-time behind Michael Gist (2008-11), who picked off 11 passes over the course of his career at BC.
