As Hillsdale’s offense put up 54 points in a season-ending shutout at Lake Erie, Philipp matched the single-game conference scoring record by a kicker with 12 points.
 
Philipp converted all six PAT opportunities and made a pair of field goals, including a 48-yarder that is the second longest in conference history to Walsh’s Kasey Tingler (49 yards). He made that kick right as the clock expired in the first half.
 
Philipp gave the Chargers a 17-0 lead with a field goal from 34 yards out to cap a 10 play, 62-yard drive earlier in the second quarter.
 
Philipp finished the year with a league-leading 11 made field goals. He also made 44 of 46 PAT’s, almost 96 percent of his tries.
