Even as the D2 football regular season reaches it's destination, some players are still putting their stamp on the 2025 campaign. 

Fun fact, Minnesota Duluth is the most northerly D2 football school in the nation. It's picture-perfect for the kind of rugged gridiron viking that Kyle Walljasper continues to be for the Bulldogs. This week, Walljasper accounted for 7 touchdowns as UMD took down UMary.
