Hardy eclipsed the 200-yard mark on the ground against Ohio Dominican in a 41-31 TU victory, putting his name into the conference record books for the second straight week in a notable category.
 
The redshirt junior gained over 200 yards on the ground for just the ninth time in conference history and matched the output of AB's Brandon Jones with 220 yards for the fifth-best mark.
 
The effort comes after Hardy ripped off a conference record 94-yard run in Week 3 and threatened the 200-yard milestone on the ground versus Walsh.
 
Hardy burst through the ODU defense for a 66-yard scoring run in the third quarter, reversing a 14-13 deficit for the Dragons at the time.
 
He averaged nearly 7.6 yards per carry on 29 attempts and took over as the conference league leader in rushing. For the season, Hardy is now averaging over 131 yards per game and is over halfway to a 1,000 yard season. He has four touchdowns on the year.
