Football’s Eric Soderberg is this week’s Male Performer of the Week. Soderberg was integral in many ways in Saturday’s come-from-behind win at Westminster College (Mo.). Soderberg led the defense with 13 tackles, including 4.5 for a loss and one sack. Three of those 4.5 TFLs, including the sack, took place in the fourth quarter in moments where Westminster could have put the game out of reach. He also had an interception in the end zone in the first quarter to keep it a one score game. On top of that, he booted a 63-yard punt in the third quarter, which was the seventh-longest in program history. However, more importantly, he stepped in relief as place kicker with the score tied at 27-27 with nine seconds remaining to attempt his first extra point of his career and he split the uprights to give the Saints the 28-27 victory.
