With ice in his veins, Philipp drilled the game-winning field goal to split a 17-17 tie and set a new conference record with a 51-yarder in Saturday’s win over Findlay.
 
Just under 90 seconds were left to play in the fourth quarter as the sophomore capitalized on a five-play, 35-yard drive.
 
Philipp’s field goal of 51 yards broke the previous long held by Walsh’s Kasey Tingler, who booted a 49-yard kick vs. Lake Erie in 2017.
 
In a low-scoring game where kicking was vital, Philipp also made a 33-yard field goal in the third quarter and converted a pair of PAT’s.
 
Philipp has now made six field goals and 20 PAT’s on the season and has scored a total of 38 points for the Chargers.
