He led the Sooner Athletic Conference in receiving yards (867), and touchdown receptions (11).

He was named an NAIA All-American Honorable Mention, and as a First Team All-SAC selection at wide receiver and as a kick and punt returner. In addition, he was named SAC Newcomer and Athlete of the Year. 

Jake Herslow is six foot and weighs 185 pounds. The 25-year-old from Virginia Beach, Virginia, was recently with the Houston Roughnecks (XFL) in 2023. Before Houston, Herslow signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent and attended rookie minicamp.
