Daytona Beach, Fla. – Three SBU football players were selected to participate in the 10th annual FCS National Bowl game. Those chosen include kicker Logan Turner, wide receiver Jordan Kent, and tight end JaQuan Dorsey. The game will take place at the Daytona Beach Stadium in Daytona Beach, Florida on Sunday, December 8th at 11:00am.
 
The FCS bowl is an annual post-season college football all-star game consisting of the top players from college football FCS schools. This game is only dedicated to FCS, D2, D3, and NAIA schools. Numerous NFL and CFL scouts attend the game and get a chance to view and get to know some of the best players from smaller schools.
 
"I am honored to represent the Bearcats in the 10th annual FCS bowl against some of the best competition in the country" Turner said. Currently holding three SBU records for place kicking, Turner will go down as the best kicker in SBU history. He has earned four All-American awards, a 1st-team Academic All-American, a GLVC Special Teams Player of the Year Award, and GLVC Scholar Athlete of the Year award. Turner holds the SBU career record in field goals made and PAT's made and the SBU single season record in field goals made.
 
His teammate for the last four years was wide receiver Jordan Kent, who is also an SBU record holder. This season he broke the SBU single season record in yards per catch averaging 25.3, four more yards than the previous record. That record led him to break the SBU career record in yards per catch with 17.31. As a five-year player for the Bearcats, his hard work and dedication has paid off by being the sole 1st team All-GLVC member for SBU this season.
 
"Being able to play in this game means a lot to me because for so long I've gone without being recognized and now I finally get to show my abilities in front of scouts and ex pro ballers"- Kent said.
 
A two-year starter for the Bearcats also getting the chance to compete in front of NFL scouts is tight end JaQuan Dorsey. "It is really a blessing to be able to do something like this, one can only imagine to be able to get a chance to make your dreams a reality" Dorsey said. He has been a crucial part to the Bearcat offense over the last two years appearing in 20 games and recording four touchdowns.
 
The former SBU teammates, will now get to compete against each other as they are on two separate teams for this bowl game. Turner and Dorsey will each suit up on the National team whereas Kent will oppose them playing for the American team. Live stream and more information can be found below:
