Speaking of special teams standouts, Dartmouth punter Ben Kepley was selected as the Ivy League special teams player of the week by the conference office. (LINK) From the release:Dartmouth junior punter Ben Kepley (Charlotte, N.C.) played a huge role in keeping the Big Green undefeated in a 13-9 win over Columbia. In a game that hinged on field position, Kepley was called upon a career-high 11 times to boot the ball, averaging 38.5 yards per punt, while dropping four inside the 20-yard line. His first three punts all came from his own end zone, two of which he launched 50 or more yards with a total of seven (return) yards on the three kicks. Of his 11 punts (one shy of the school record), seven were high enough to warrant a fair catch and only one was returned at all.Named to the honor roll were Cody
