BRIDGEPORT, W.Va. -- Urbana's Shemar Hooks' one-handed touchdown grab against Concord has been selected as the 2018-19 Mountain East Conference Play of the Year. The MEC Play of the Year was selected by a combination of a fan vote conducted via social media, conference administrators and the league office.

Hooks' catch came in the first quarter in a 31-24 win over Concord in the season finale back on Nov. 10. The catch was viewed over 3,000 times on Twitter, over 400 times on Instagram and nearly 400 more times on Facebook.

That catch finished ahead of Marissa Brown's game-winner against Wheeling Jesuit, Notre Dame's Jaleel McLaughlin's touchdown run and Concord's Yasmin Mosby's 20-yard goal.
