• Senior quarterback David Washington had a career day, completing 26-of-36 passes for 416 yards and five touchdowns. He also rushed for 21 yards for 437 yards of total offense.

Davis Hitting His Stride
Redshirt freshman kicker Brad Davis has improved each work for the Monarchs. Before his 38-yard field goal attempt at the end of the first half hit the left upright, Davis had made nine consecutive field goals, including a 43-yarder at UTEP. He has five touchbacks on the season, which is tied for an FBS low, however, ODU’s kick return defense is the seventh best in FBS. Davis has varied his kicks, kicking them deep, short pop ups and line drives.

SENIOR DAY
Old Dominion has 15 student-athletes that will be honored in a pregame ceremony against FIU. Six of the 15 are the final FCS recruits from the 2012 recruiting class.
