Demarre Nelson sealed Fisher's 31-24 win over No. 15 ranked SUNY Cortland on Saturday as he made two interceptions in the Fisher red-zone in the final three minutes. The first was made at his own 7-yard line with 3:08 remaining in the game. Fisher was forced to punt on its next possession, giving Cortland the ball at midfield with 1:01 remaining, but Nelson again came up big, making his second interception at the Fisher 17 with seven seconds left.
