After missing last week's game at Bridgewater College due to injury, Taylor returned to lead Emory & Henry in a 70-27 drubbing of Guilford College Saturday afternoon at home. The 70 points scored by the Wasps were the third most in program history and the most in 91 years dating back to an 83-0 win over Bridgewater in 1927.

The Stratford High School graduate threw for six touchdowns and ran for two more totaling 416 yards of total offense. He went 17-for-28 through the air for 359 yards, tying the E&H record for touchdowns in a game with "Sonny" Wade, Gary Collier and himself. That performance also sits in a tie for seventh all-time in the ODAC.

This marks the fourth ODAC Football Player of the Week for Emory & Henry this year as sophomore defensive back Tyler Redmond earned defensive player of the week accolades in Weeks Four and Eight.

Emory & Henry (4-5, 3-4 ODAC) finished in a four-way tie for fourth place in the ODAC this year. The Wasps will now await the announcement of the All-ODAC Teams which will be released on Tuesday, November 20.
