Summary

Biography

2024: Served up an All-Conference Honorable Mention bid for the second season in a row thanks to 37 tackles, 7.5 TFL's, and a team-high-tying six sacks to back up the opponent for a total of 51 yards...Broke the Blue Hose single-season record in the Division I era (2007 onward) by tallying 10 quarterback hurries...His six sacks are tied for the third-most in a sole year by any PC defender in nearly two decades and also ranked fourth in the Pioneer League ...Started all 11 games for the second time in as many years, collecting all six of his sacks in a six-game window during PFL play...Tormented Morehead State with a season-high seven stops, sacking the QB twice while also forcing a fumble in the second half...Grabbed 3.5 tackles-for-a-loss during the team's season-ending four-game winning streak, responsible for another fumble in a three-touchdown smashing of Dayton (11/2)...Broke up two passes in a non-conference W over Erskine (9/7).

2023: Rose up the ranks even more as a sophomore edge-rusher by compiling 45 tackles (fourth on the roster) beside 7.5 stops behind the line of scrimmage...Started all 11 meetings on the year, pushing back the opponent for a total of 30 yards on the aforementioned TFL's...Named All-Pioneer Football League Honorable Mention after producing three sacks in a four-game period for a total of 20 lost yards...Tallied at least one tackle for a loss in six different encounters - including two apiece versus Virginia-Lynchburg and Stetson - while hitting a new career-high with nine stops (six of the solo variety) at Davidson (10/28)...Recovered a fumble in the PFL opener at Butler (9/30), a game where he also posted a quarterback hurry...Reached five tackles or better on four separate dates, landing 22 in the final four matchups of the campaign.

2022: Finished an impressive freshman campaign that included a team-leading five quarterback pressures in nine appearances, accumulating 34 tackles altogether...Posted 6.5 stops behind the line of scrimmage (a figure ranking second on the team), adding up for a combined loss of 28 yards...Each of those TFL's occurred inside conference territory, the most of which took place in the 2022 finale at Stetson (11/19) with 2.5 tackles past the scrimmage line...Landed his first college sack at Bailey Memorial versus Valparaiso (10/8), the second time that the newbie backed up the opposing offense for 11 yards in a single outing...Put together five performances with four tackles or better, an individual best coming in his first home encounter with Virginia-Lynchburg (five unassisted and six total on 9/10).
