He also went 4-for-4 on extra point attempts. In 10 games this season, Alberts was 8-for-9 on field goals and 45-of-46 on extra points. Alberts previously won the award on October 15, 2018; October 15, 2017; September 17, 2017 and September 10, 2017. The Dutch finished the season 8-2 and finished in a tie for second place in the conference.
