Justin Hernandez, a junior from Lapwai,
Idaho (Lapwai HS), blocked a punt that was returned for a touchdown with 3:11
left in Idaho’s game at Virginia. Idaho trailed 14-6 at the time and
following the successful two-point conversion after the touchdown, the Vandals
forced overtime before losing 21-20 after an unsuccessful two-point try in the
extra period.
Hernandez joined the team as a walkon and, in addition to his special teams play, he is a backup receiver.
