As Tiffin won its fourth straight in a swing game against Ohio Dominican that altered the Great Midwest standings, Watson was a force on his own by accounting for 427 yards of the team's 512 rolled up on offense.  
 
The two-time conference player of the year threw for 353 yards on 18 completions while rushing for 74 on the ground. He passed for a pair of touchdowns and scored another with his legs.
 
Watson helped direct his team to a 34-21 win as the Dragons scored 24 points in the second half alone.
 
Watson connected with Anthony Lowe for a 23-yard scoring sequence in Tiffin's first possession of the third quarter and would counter an ODU scoring drive with a 32-yard pass play to Vince Ringland in the end zone.
 
Watson punched it from three yards in a short drive before halftime when the Dragons went 52 yards in just 19 seconds. Watson is one of two QB's in the conference with 20 TD's sharing the honor with Lake Erie's Gerald Gardner as co-league leaders. He has thrown for over 2,200 yards and has added over 250 rushing yards with four TD's.
