Senior Maleke Fuentes helped the Saxons earn the Empire 8 Championship title, finish the season 10-0 and earn the right to host the first round of the NCAA’s by defeating nationally-ranked St. John Fisher College on Saturday. Fuentes had a big day on special teams, taking four kickoffs and returning them for a combined 181 yards with a long of 90 yards. He then added a reception for 26 yards that scored a Saxon touchdown and rushed five times for 24 yards with no negative yardage.
