Jaguar of the Week :Willie Quinn

Willie Quinn, senior wide receiver for the Southern University Jaguars, now holds the school’s all-time record for catches. Michael Hayes previously held the record for Southern’s all-time receptions. After a 13 yard catch from Junior Quarterback Austin Howard in the first quarter, Quinn surpassed his fellow Jaguar who previously held the record with 205 career catches.
Quinn now has 210 career catches and is on the verge of breaking Southern’s all-time receiving yardage record in addition to a FCS record. The Miami native finished the game with six catches for 90 yards. He is now 150 yards away from tying Hayes for the school record for receiving yards.
“I’ve been dreaming of this since I was a little kid, to break records,” explained Quin after Saturday’s 49-17 victory against The University of Arkansas Pine Bluff.
An error committed by a score keeper last week at in Jackson, Mississippi which would have allowed him to achieve this record last weekend was not fixed until half-way through Saturdays game. This record is only the beginning for the Southern University star receiver. Willie Quinn is living proof of “Heart over Height”.
He is defying odds and breaking records despite his small stature.
“Look at me: I’m 5-foot-5, 155 pounds. Nobody expected me to do the things I do,” proclaimed Quinn.
This week’s game against the two time defending SWAC champions Alcorn State University will be a true test of not only Quins abilities but of the Jaguars cohesiveness as a whole.
