11/2/2026 11:16:00 AM

            Wayne State senior placekicker Boston Hensley was named Northern Sun Conference Football Special Teams Player of the Week Monday morning by the league office in Burnsville, Minnesota following his play in Saturday's 54-14 home win over Concordia-St. Paul.  It's the second time this year a Wildcat player has earned Special Teams Player of the Week honors as punt returner Brayden Chaney earned the award October 12th.
            Hensley, a 5-11, 185-pounder from Council Bluffs, Iowa (Lewis Central HS), converted all seven extra-point kicks and scored 10 points in the Wildcats' NSIC South Division home win over Concordia-St. Paul.  He added a 25-yard field goal in the second quarter and also averaged 60.2 yards on nine kickoffs with three touchbacks.
            For the season, Hensley has made 32-34 PAT kicks and is 7-11 on field goals that includes a 49-yarder at Bemidji State which is tied for the fourth-longest in school history.  He is tied for third in the NSIC in field goals made and is fourth in the league in kicking points per game (5.9) and PAT kicks made.
            Wayne State, 7-2 overall and 6-2 in the NSIC (3-1 South Division), re-entered this week's AFCA Division II Top 25 Coaches Poll at #25 and hosts Sioux Falls (6-3, 6-2 NSIC/2-2 South Division) in the annual Egg Bowl and Senior Day Game at Bob Cunningham Field with kickoff set for 1 p.m.
