A career-long 45-yard field goal and a 67-yard punt to help the football team upset Washington & Lee in the Cape Charles Bowl are enough to help senior Ian Plankenhorn earn his first career Warrior of the Week award. A two-time all-region pick as a kicker, Plankenhorn's two field goals and two extra points were more than enough to mark the difference in the 20-17 win, as he canned a 19-yarder in the second quarter (the shortest of the 28 field goals of his career) followed by drilling the longest of his career from 45 yards in the third quarter to give Lycoming a 13-3 lead. He also had three touchbacks in five kickoffs. Stepping into the punting role this year, he enjoyed his best game punting against Washington & Lee, dropping three of his four kicks inside the 20, including a 67-yarder to start the third quarter that was downed at the five-yard line. His only punt that wasn't inside the 20 was downed at the 20.

Plankenhorn finished the season 10-of-12 in field goal attempts with the sixth-best field goal percentage in Division III (0.833) and the 24th-most field goals made per game (0.9). Plankenhorn is ninth amongst active career leaders in field goals made (28) and third in Lycoming's school history.
