Christopher Ais, New Haven
Senior | Running Back | Stoughton, Mass.
Ais set a career-high galloping for 238 yards on 28 carries and a pair of touchdowns in the Chargers' 45-34 road win at Bentley on Saturday. Ais' 238 yards is the most for a Charger since 2015 against Saint Anselm, while it was part of 406 rushing yards for the team, also the most since that same game in 2015. The highlight of the day for Ais was a 65-yard run on 1st & 10 on the Chargers' second drive of the game as he gave New Haven a 14-7 lead scoring his second TD in as many drives. He also had runs of 30 and 40 to close out the third quarter and set up a fourth-quarter opening touchdown for his team.
