Heidelberg's Miller, Capital's Hatcher Named to D3football.com Team of the Week

WESTERVILLE, Ohio – One of the most memorable games of the Ohio Athletic Conference season has produced two national honorees. Heidelberg University senior tailback Drew Miller and Capital University junior defensive lineman Robbie Hatcher were each named to the D3football.com Team of the Week on Tuesday, recognized for their performances in the Student Princes' 38-32 double-overtime win at Capital on Saturday, Nov. 7.

Miller was selected as one of two running backs on the national squad and was also featured as the lead photo of this week's release, while Hatcher earned a spot on the special teams unit.

Miller Puts Up a Division III Season Best

Miller (Portland, Mich. / Portland) delivered the top rushing performance in Division III this season at Bernlohr Stadium in Bexley. He carried the ball 46 times for 391 yards and four touchdowns, adding four receptions for 60 yards and a fifth score through the air, for 451 all-purpose yards.

Miller's 391 rushing yards are the second-most in Heidelberg history, trailing only Cartel Brooks' 465-yard game at Baldwin Wallace in 2013, and rank fifth in OAC history. He became the first Student Prince to score five touchdowns in a game since Montavious Yearby at Hiram in 2023.

His biggest plays came when Heidelberg needed them most. Miller opened the Student Princes' scoring with an 11-yard touchdown catch from Alex Arledge, then broke loose for an 89-yard touchdown run in the third quarter to give Heidelberg a 32-24 lead – the program's longest run since 2017. In the second overtime, after Heidelberg's Trevor Robinson blocked a Capital field goal attempt, Miller ended the game on the Student Princes' first snap with a 25-yard touchdown run, giving Heidelberg its first walk-off win since 2023.

Heidelberg piled up 689 yards of total offense, including 406 on the ground, and held the ball for nearly 37 minutes.

A 2025 D3football.com Third Team All-American and First Team All-OAC selection, Miller won the OAC rushing title a season ago.

Hatcher Rewrites the Capital Record Book

On the other side, Hatcher turned in a historic special teams performance that kept the Comets in the game. The 6-foot-1 junior blocked three Heidelberg extra-point attempts, breaking a Capital single-game record set by Harry Campbell in 1937.

Hatcher's three blocks also tied a Division II player for the most blocked kicks in a game across all NCAA divisions this season.

Those missed points proved critical. With Heidelberg's lead held to one possession, Capital tied the game in the final minute of regulation on a 21-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Love to Preston Hannika and a two-point conversion to Wesley Armstead, forcing the first of two overtime periods.

The national recognition comes one day after Hatcher was named the OAC Special Teams Player of the Week on Monday, Nov. 9.
