Delta State defensive back Richard Nash (JR, 5-9, 180, Macon, GA).
Nash garners the first honor of his career, spearheading the Statesmen’s defense in a 24-14 upset over Division I-FCS Mississippi Valley State. The junior made a huge impact in his first game at DSU, tying the team-high total for tackles with seven solo stops, while also logging two tackles for a loss of seven yards. The Macon, GA native did not stop there, intercepting a pass with just over a minute remaining, sealing the victory.
