COLUMBIA, Ky. - Lindsey Wilson student-athlete Jamahl Gentry has been selected as the Mid-South Conference Football Defensive Player of the Week, the conference office announced Monday.
 
Gentry, of Lewisburg, Tennessee earns weekly honors for the first time in his career and is the first Blue Raider to earn Defensive Player of the Week honors since October 21, 2024. He led the Lindsey Wilson defense with six tackles and five solo tackles in the Blue Raiders' 30-21 victory over Campbellsville. Gentry also had an interception and 0.5 tackles for loss.
 
With Campbellsville leading 21-20 late in the third quarter and on the Lindsey Wilson 13, Gentry intercepted the pass in the endzone returning it seven yards. Gentry's interception set up the go-ahead touchdown drive for the Blue Raiders.
