Southeast Missouri punter Zach Haynes won his second Ohio Valley Conference Specialist of the Week honor of the season Sunday (10/31). A native of Potosi, Missouri, Haynes averaged 54.7 yards on three punts in a 38-15 win over Eastern Illinois on Saturday (10/30). He twice pinned the Panthers at their own 1-yard line on punts of 76 and 51 yards, respectively. Haynes' 76-yard punt was the longest of his career, the longest in the OVC and the fifth longest in the Football Championship Subdivision this year. He leads the OVC in punting with 42 yards per punt.
