Jackson State Mascot Earns Personal Foul Penalty After Beautiful Touchdown Catch

Jackson State can't blame its mascot for Sunday's result.

However, the Tigers can get mad at Wavee Dave for costing them 15 yards when they were in control of the contest.

In a matchup against Bethune-Cookman, Jackson State was able to snag a 15–7 lead in the third quarter before letting the game slip away. And the touchdown play that pushed the score to 15 will be remembered for a long time.

Not only did it involve an amazing leaping catch from junior wide receiver Warren Newman, but it was also the play the mascot got flagged for an unsportsmanlike conduct.
