Junior wide receiver Kaian Duverger made sure he gave the Cavaliers a fighting chance.
Trailing 42-21 late in the third quarter, UVa-Wise found itself in the red zone. Quarterback Jake Sturgill rolled out and chucked the ball to the corner of the end zone. While it seemed like there was nothing but the white jerseys of the Rams defense, Duverger made sure it ended up in the right hands.
Or in this case, hand.
Whoa nelly! Duverger with the .
