JACKSON - Northwest freshman kicker Jackson Uselton was voted for MACCC Special Teams Player of the Week accolades, the conference announced on Tuesday morning.

Uselton converted four of his five field goal attempts in last Thursday's 19-3 victory against Hinds, including a career-long of 39 yards. The Hernando native also converted his lone PAT attempt, which came off a short touchdown pass from Keegan Patterson to Will Dabney just before halftime.

Uselton also became the first Northwest kicker to make four field goals in a single game since Tucker Barefoot in the 2020 MACCC and National Community College Football Championship victory at Mississippi Gulf Coast.

The MACCC Player of the Week accolades are nominated and voted upon by the sports information directors across the conference. Uselton is the first Northwest player chosen for weekly conference honors this season.

Despite the win, the Rangers slid two spots in the NJCAA rankings to No. 13 overall. Northwest (1-1) will host Pearl River (0-2) on Thursday, September 21 at 7 P.M.
