<p><strong>By Collegebaseball360.com Editor Sean Stires<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Villanova, PA</strong>-  On a snow covered day at Villanova Stadium junior Wildcat receiver <strong>Matt Szczur</strong> had another big day to help #2 seed Villanova to a 46-7 Football Championship Subdivision quarterfinal playoff win over New Hampshire (10-3).</p>
<div id="attachment_1648" style="width: 100px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="http://collegebaseball360.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/SzczurSmallFB2.jpeg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1648" title="SzczurSmallFB" src="http://collegebaseball360.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/SzczurSmallFB2-90x150.jpg" alt="Matt Szczur (Villanova photo)" width="90" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Matt Szczur (Villanova photo)</p></div>
<p>Szczur (pronounced SEE-zer, like Julius Caesar or Little Caesar&#8217;s if you prefer) had a 29-yard touchdown run in the third quarter of the VU (12-1) romp.  He finished his day with 40 yards on seven carries along with 46 receiving yards on a pair of catches.  His lone 37 yard kickoff return gave him 123 all-purpose yards on the day.</p>
<p>Szczur now has a streak of nine straight games with either a touchdown catch, pass or run.  He has also returned a kickoff for a score this season.   Szczur has completed all three of his pass attempts this season for 21 yards and two touchdowns.  The wide receivers other stats:  45 receptions for 534 yards and four TDs, 86 rushes for 562 yards (6.7) and 7 touchdowns, and 26 kickoff returns for 719 yards (27.7) and another score.</p>
<p>Szczur is the only player in either the Football Bowl Subdivision or Football Championship Subdivision to have touchdowns via a run, reception, pass, and kick return this season.   He was also named both the Colonial Athletic Association&#8217;s Offensive Player of the Year and Special Teams Player of the Year</p>
<div id="attachment_1649" style="width: 100px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="http://collegebaseball360.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/szczurbaseball2.jpeg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1649" title="szczurbaseball" src="http://collegebaseball360.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/szczurbaseball2-90x150.jpg" alt="Szczur on the diamond (VU photo)" width="90" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Szczur on the diamond (VU photo)</p></div>
<p>in 2009.  He is just the second player in conference history to receive both awards in the same season.</p>
<p>His 2009 calender year is even more impressive considering he batted a team-high .346 last spring during his first season on the Wildcat football team.  (Szczr is a junior, but he missed what would have been his freshman baseball season in 2008 due to injury.)  He also had 10 doubles, two triples, one home run, scored a team-high 45 runs, and tied for the Villanova team lead with 18 stolen bases.</p>
<p>Szczur and other college baseball players who also play another sport have been featured this fall in the Collegebaseball360.com <a href="http://collegebaseball360.com/category/two-sport-reports/" target="_blank">Two Sport Reports</a>.</p>
<p>Szczur and Villanova are now on to the FCS National semifinals where they will host Colonial Athletic Association rival William &amp; Mary 11-2).  That game will be played at Villanova Stadium.  Villanova&#8217;s official web site, www.villanova.com, says the game will either be Friday night (Dec. 11) at 8 p.m. or Saturday afternoon (Dec. 12) at 4 p.m.</p>
