BEVERLY (Podcast) Endicott College Football (7-1) has two remaining regular season games to play this season. Both of the remaining two games will be played at home. This Saturday the Gulls host Curry (Noon) and next week (11/11) Endicott will close out the regular season against the University of New England, Senior Day, (Noon). In this week’s podcast with head coach Paul McGonagle he discusses last week’s win at Husson (23-13) and also look’s ahead to this week’s matchup with Curry. Coach McGonagle also shares a “shout out” to Endicott parents and fans that were well represented in Maine last weekend. We plan to be adding information to this post this week. Also, we apologize for a couple of minor audio glitches in this week’s podcast.

Endicott College Football
Endicott football senior kicker Ryan Smith (Glastonbury, Conn.) was named the Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) Special Teams Player of the Week, as announced by the league office earlier today.
Smith totaled a season-high 11 points on three field goals (3-3) and two extra points (2-2) in last Saturday’s 23-13 road win over Husson.
He started off the scoring for the then-No. 19/19 nationally ranked Gulls in the second quarter, as he nailed back-to-back field goals of 22 and 30 yards, respectively.
In the fourth quarter, he buried a career-long 46-yard field goal to put Endicott up by a two-score margin, 16-7. The career-long mark ended up being the decider in the game, as the Gulls went on to defeat the Eagles 23-13.
Smith also compiled 372 yards on six kickoffs (62.0 average, four touchbacks) in the win.
This marks Smith’s fifth career win of the CCC Special Teams Player of the Week Award (9/27/21, 10/4/2021, 11/1/2021, 10/24/22).
