Hobart College junior corner back Jared Leake accounted for half of the Hobart defense's takeaways on Saturday and also logged five solo tackles as the Statesmen limited Montclair State to just a single first-quarter field goal. He ended back-to-back Red Hawk drives deep in Hobart territory in the second half. In the final minute of the third quarter on a first down play from the 18, Leake picked off an MSU pass at the 5 and was credited with a 26-yard return. On Montclair State's next possession, he picked off the Red Hawks' quarterback again, this time in the back of the end zone for a touchback. Leake is tied for the Liberty League lead in interceptions. He is third on the team in tackles.
