Presbyterian College

2025: Was one of the hardest hitters across an incredible senior season, participating in 10 games and stacking up a career-best 35 tackles...The Blue Hose began the campaign with back-to-back upsets over the last two Southern Conference champions, with Ward totaling 14 tackles, three TFL's, a sack, a forced fumble, and a pass breakup in those victories against #11 Mercer and Furman...Tied a season-high with eight stops at Dayton, helping the Scotsmen to their third-ever 10-win record and a spot as high as #16 in the AFCA Coaches Poll...Presby's defense conceded just 16 points per game, the third-smallest number in all of FCS...Opponents could only gather 272 total yards per contest against Ward and the PC secondary, ranking second in America in that department...Quarterbacks held a combined efficiency rating of 106 against the Blue Hose, the fourth-worst number nationwide...Over 60 percent of Ward's tackles were done solo, adding his fifth TFL against Valparaiso which helped PC go undefeated at Bailey Memorial Stadium.

2024: Doubled his tackling numbers during year three at PC (18), appearing in nine contests and starting against Erskine and Morehead State...Grabbed five tackles in a west-coast visit to San Diego (10/5) and later broke up two passes in a 28-point spanking over Stetson (10/26)...Had at least one tackle in eight of his nine showings on the year, including 11 stops in his last four efforts.

2023: Remained a sizable contributor in PC's special teams core, playing in 10 games during his second year while making his first start at defensive back vs Marist (10/21)...Went for nine tackles on the campaign, the most of which came in the Pioneer Football League opener at Butler (9/30) when he scattered six.

2022: Appeared in two meetings as a true freshman, lining up primarily with the Blue Hose special teams unit...Recorded his first tackle of the year against Dayton (11/5) in the team's home finale.
