(STATS) -- Record-setting performances have been a constant this season for the three players who Tuesday were invited to the announcement of the 2016 STATS FCS Walter Payton Award.Sam Houston States Jeremiah Briscoe and Eastern Washington teammates Gage Gubrud and Cooper Kupp hope to claim whats known as the Heisman of the FCS level, an award that is in its 30th anniversary season and will be handed out at the STATS FCS Awards Banquet and Presentation in Frisco, Texas on Jan. 6 -- the eve of the national championship game.A national panel of over 150 sports information and media relations directors, broadcasters, writers and other dignitaries voted on the Payton Award, which had 25 finalists from 13 FCS conferences. Briscoe and Gubrud are quarterbacks, while Kupp, last years Payton recipient, is a wide receiver.Briscoe, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound redshirt junior from Houston, has led Sam Houston State to the No. 1 ranking in the STATS FCS Top 25, the Southland Conference title and the No. 5 seed in the FCS playoffs. The Bearkats have the nations top-ranked offense and his 52 touchdown passes are a Southland record and four shy of the FCS single-season record. The Southland player of the year has produced the top four single-game touchdown performances in Sam Houston history, including seven scoring passes against both Stephen F. Austin and Central Arkansas. In addition to leading the FCS in TD passes, he ranked No. 1 in passing yards (4,096), passing yards per game (372.4), passing efficiency (187.0), points responsible for (318) and points responsible for per game (28.9) during the regular season. He threw only seven interceptions.I have a really strong belief in Jeremiahs talent, coach K.C. Keeler said, but maybe I have a stronger belief in his leadership skills.Gubrud and Kupp are the first pair of teammates to share the Big Sky Conferences offensive player of the year award and have helped third-ranked Eastern Washington to a share of the conference title and the No. 2 seed in the playoffs.Gubrud, a 6-2, 195-pound redshirt sophomore from McMinnville, Oregon, opened the season against Washington State with a school-record 551 total offensive yards in his first career start, and later set the Eagles single-game standard for passing yards with 520 against Montana State. He is on pace to set the Big Sky record for total offensive yards per game (his average is a national-best 412.2) and ranked second in the FCS in completions (300), passing yards (4,071), passing yards per game (370.1), touchdown passes (40), points responsible for (266) and points responsible for per game (24.2) during the regular season. He went 222 straight passes without an interception, and led the Eagles with 463 rushing yards, scoring four times.Kupp, a 6-2, 215-pound redshirt senior from Yakima, Washington, is enjoying his fourth straight monster season. In the regular season, he had 91 receptions for 1,297 yards and 12 touchdowns, ranking first in receiving yards per game (129.7) and second in receptions, receptions per game (9.1) and receiving yards. He rushed for a touchdown, passed for two and scored on a punt return. The NFL prospect owns 13 FCS, 10 Big Sky and 22 school records, led by the career triumvirate of 402 receptions, 6,061 receiving yards and 68 touchdowns receptions -- each a FCS and Division I record. Hes also caught a pass in 49 straight games, tying the FCS mark. With a repeat of the Payton Award, Kupp would become the second two-time winner with former Appalachian State quarterback Armanti Edwards in 2008 and 09.When you take a look at their seasons, Gage has had an outstanding debut year, and then Coopers body of work is off the charts, coach Beau Baldwin said. Its very deserving in terms of how teams have to prepare going against Gage and Cooper and what they bring to the table offensively. They just happen to be on the same team. With the work each of them has done individually, their accomplishments on paper statistically and the wins theyve helped produce for our team, I think its very deserving they are two of the three finalists. Its quite an honor.The Walter Payton Award voting reflected the regular season and was conducted before the start of the FCS playoffs.The results for fourth through 25th place were as follows:---=4.

CHICAGO -- It was a wrist shot for Andrew Shaw, who leaned back and yelled after his first-period score. Brent Seabrook got in on the action, and Bryan Bickell and Michal Handzus added two more goals on consecutive shots in the second. And just like that, Jonathan Quick was gone. The Chicago Blackhawks chased the Los Angeles Kings standout goalie during an impressive display in the opening two periods of a 4-2 victory Sunday night in Game 2 of the Western Conference finals. "Its a high-speed game. If we use our speed, well be all right," Shaw said. "We played our game. Thats the difference. The guys played good. We all competed for each other. We did everything we needed to do, keeping it deep in the zone." Patrick Sharp and Brandon Saad added two assists apiece as the Blackhawks grabbed a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series with their fifth consecutive victory. Corey Crawford made 29 saves in another solid performance, drawing chants of "Co-rey! Co-rey!" from the capacity crowd at the United Center. "We went through a little spurt there in the last series where we were doing the right things but the pucks werent going in," Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews said. "So now were getting the results we want. We can do what were doing more often. We can do it better as well in the next few games." Game 3 is Tuesday night at Los Angeles, where the Kings have won 14 consecutive games, dating to the regular season. The Kings also lost their first two games of the playoffs at St. Louis before winning four straight to eliminate the Blues in the first round. Jeff Carter and Tyler Toffoli scored for Los Angeles, but the Kings struggled to score without Mike Richards, who was scratched because of an undisclosed upper body injury. The defending Stanley Cup champions have 29 goals in 15 post-season games. "Youve got to find a way," Quick said. "They did their job at home. Weve got to go home and do our job now." Richards, who leads the Kings with 10 playoff points, was sidelined after taking a big hit from Dave Bolland in the final minutes of the Blackhawks 2-1 victory on Saturday. Kings coach Darryl Sutter said Richards was "fine" a couple of hours before the game, but the centre was scratched from the lineup after participating in the pregame warmups. "He was fine today, then I think just once his blood got pumping tonight, the adrenaline got going, there were symptoms," Sutter said. "I went in right after warmup, he was sitting there and I said, Unless youre 100 per cent, youre not playing." Los Angeles forward Brad Richardson and defenceman Drew Doughty gingerly skated off at separate points of the first period, but both returned to the ice. The series took on a more physical tone in the second game in two days -- a rarity in the playofffs brought on by The Rolling Stones tour.dddddddddddd The top-seeded Blackhawks also won the series opener in each of the first two rounds, but they dropped three in a row following their Game 1 victory against Detroit in the conference semifinals. There was no such letdown this time. "It was frustrating early on, that series against Detroit, but I think we learned a lot there," defenceman Duncan Keith said. Shaw got Chicago off to a fast start, taking a nifty pass from Viktor Stalberg and beating Quick on the glove side just 1:56 into the game. Marian Hossa set up Seabrook in the final minute for a low liner into the left corner of the net. The defenceman put the Blackhawks into this round with an overtime goal in Game 7 against Detroit on Wednesday. The Blackhawks added two more in the second, separated by just 2:09. Bickell scored a power-play goal on a rebound in front, and Handzus skated in and beat Quick to make it 4-0 at 9:20. "We gave them too many Grade-A scoring chances, and they capitalized," Kings defenceman Rob Scuderi said. "You cant give up those opportunities and expect your goalie to bail you out every single time." The crowd of 21,824 roared after Handzus second goal of the post-season, and cheered even louder when Quick skated off and was replaced by Jonathan Bernier. Quick, last years playoff MVP who had played every minute of this years playoffs, finished with 13 saves. "We had some nice shots. We had some high-quality stuff off the rush, as well, in that period," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said. "I still think thats going to be an ongoing challenge with him." Carter converted a one-timer at 18:57 of the second, and Toffoli netted a power-play goal with 1:02 left in the game, but that was it for the Kings. The Blackhawks killed three other power plays and have allowed just two goals in 47 attempts in the playoffs. Crawford was saluted by the crowd after he stopped Dustin Penner on a quality opportunity late in the second, and the chants resumed when he pulled Kings forward Kyle Clifford off Toews during a scrum with 8:45 left. "The guy grabbed him, got a couple free shots. I figured it was enough," Crawford said. "I just decided to go in there and grab his head." Crawford was one of the top goalies in the NHL during the lockout-shortened regular season, and he has carried that into the playoffs. He has allowed just one goal in four of his last six games. "Hes the guy we want in net back there," Sharp said. "Hes proven it in the past. Its nice to see him finally get the credit that he deserves." NOTES: Kings rookie D Jake Muzzin was scratched after playing in the first 14 post-season games. ... Crawford was 1-1 with a 3.54 goals-against average against Los Angeles during the regular season.
