VIDEO: Lehigh Absolutely Destroys St. Francis Punter Ryan Oliver in FCS Massacre
By Sean Facey
Even though it's FCS, it doesn't look like the Patriot League is for the weak of will. In the midst of a hard-fought battle between the Lehigh Mountain Hawks and the St. Francis Red Flash, a Lehigh defender absolutely leveled punter Ryan Oliver, who bravely tried to get the ball away after losing control of it.

That's about as close as you can possibly get to outright murder on a football field.
The punter deserves some credit for sticking with the ball. It must have taken immense courage to try and punt that away with a defender bearing down on him.

Then again, he didn't even get the punt off, and the ensuing loose ball was returned for a touchdown by Lehigh, so maybe next time around he'll forgo the heroics and just cut his losses.
