Aquinas grad Earnest Edwards returned two kickoffs for touchdowns and also caught a touchdown pass for Maine in a win over Colgate.
Edwards caugth a 40-yard touchdown pass late in the first half for the Black Bears in their 35-21 victory over the Raiders.
He then returned the second half kickoff 100 yards and then, later in the third, brought one back 95 yards.
"I guess it was the heat, finally wasn't cold, I'm used to up north but the kick returns, it was just the blocking honestly. They did a great job holding their man, give me a lane, I just used my speed," Edwards said. "It felt real good to back at home in New York, two hours away from home, 30 plus people here, my family, I just had to show for them."
An All-CAA Preseason selection, Edwards helped Aquinas win New York State titles in 2013 and 2015, in the latter, he scored four touchdowns to earn MVP honors.
