SETTING THE TONE: Craig Reynolds (Willow Grove, Pa./Abington) ranks second in Division II at 270 all-purpose yards per game, highlighted by a 335-yard performance in the season-opener against Assumption. He holds the single-game record of 345, set last season.

TACKLING TJ: Tajier Jefferson (East Orange, N.J./Queen of Peace) had a career-high 15 tackles in the opener against Assumption with an interception and a forced fumble.

LEADING TACKLER: Jalen Nieves (Bensalem, Pa./Bensalem) has played in 29 career games with 189 tackles and four interceptions.
 
PRIMETIME PUNTER: Freshman punter Dean Krcic (Saylorsburg, Pa./Pleasant Valley) ranks second in the PSAC and fifth in Division II with an average of 44.9 yards-per-punt. The school-record for a season is 43.02 by KU All-Time Team punter Jon Corson in 2003.
 
MAGIC NUMBER = 24: KU head coach Jim Clements is 16-1 in his Kutztown career when holding opponents to 24 or fewer points. His only loss was to Mercyhurst in 2016 (23-19).
  
WINNING SEASON: KU has posted three-straight winning seasons, extending head coach Jim Clements' career streak to 11 straight.
 
EFFECTIVE AFTERNOON: Sophomore quarterback Collin DiGalbo (Secane, Pa./Monsignor Bonner) threw for a career-high 268 yards in last week's win at Mercyhurst. He completed 20-of-26 passes and ranks second in the PSAC in completion percentage (.661).
 
DUAL-THREAT QB: DiGalbo earned All-PSAC East Second Team honors and the PSAC East Freshman of the Year last year. On the ground, he holds four school-rushing-records for a quarterback – touchdowns in a game (3) and season (8), longest run (82) and most rushing yards in a game (126). He has run for 481 career yards with nine touchdowns.
 
WINNING QUARTERBACK: Collin DiGalbo (Secane, Pa./Monsignor Bonner) holds a record of 7-2 as a starting quarterback.
 
EARLY SEASON SLUMPS: In the last four years, KU has posted a 3-8 record in its opening games before starting divisional play.
