This week’s NDPF Male Athlete of the Week is Jesse Forknell. Forknell got his first of the season at quarterback for the UMary Football team. Facing a rugged defense led by Ian Marshall and a rushing attack led by Stanley Haskins Jr., Forknell managed to put together some big plays and an inspired drive to end the game on a high note. 

With shades of his week two performance against Sioux Falls, Forknell led an 11-play 85-yard drive that resulted in an eight-yard passing touchdown to Traivon Dyson on a fourth down conversion. Forknell hit Dyson for what was their third score together in two weeks. 

Forknell is a junior quarterback from Fargo, ND.
