WATCH: Kennesaw State WR makes most amazing catch of the week against Liberty

Late in the second quarter of Saturday’s game against Liberty, Kennesaw State wide receiver Justin Sumpter made the most impressive catch of the week.

Sumpter, a redshirt junior from Tyrone, Ga., caught a five-yard pass from quarterback Chandler Burks with one hand for the Owls touchdown. The score increased Kennesaw State’s lead 28-7.

A Sandy Creek High School graduate, Sumpter finished the Owls’ 42-28 win over Liberty with two receptions for nine yards and one touchdown.

Here’s another angle of that Odell Beckham-style catch:
