Analysis
After completing a solo instructional flight the 80-HR student plt landed. During rollout the plt inadvertently applied excessive brake & rudder pressure to the left pedal. The plt lost directional control of the acft & it veered off the rwy. The acft collided with the embankment of a drainage ditch. The plt also reported that his 'size 12 foot' probably contributed to the mishap.
