Zach Hintze of Saint Mary's Springs has been selected as the Week 2 Air National Guard Player of the Week following a statewide vote on WisSports.net. Hintze drilled a 57-yard field goal and connected on two other attempts as the Ledgers defeated Wautoma, 30-12. He was chosen from a strong group of nominees in Week 2. A total of 2586 votes were cast as Hintze's 806 votes edged Nick Allen of Homestead (607 votes) and Connor Allen of Brookfield East (570).

Springs took down Wautoma 30-12 in Week 2, and Hintze played a big role in many areas. On defense he recorded an interception, but made his bigger mark with his leg. He connected on all three field goal attempts and all three extra points, including a 57-yard field goal just before halftime.

The 57-yarder ties him for 6th on the state's all-time list of longest field goals. It is the longest in the state since a 58-yarder by Sun Prairie's Lucas Otto in 2011.

Remember folks, the only way your favorite player can be named Air National Guard Player of the Week is to vote and share the word. Look for the Week 3 nominees to be posted Monday afternoon.
