TYLER FRISBY OF SOUTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY, a senior linebacker from Justin, Texas, has been named the SCAC Football Defensive Co-Player of the Week for games played Saturday, Novermber 5. Frisby shares this week's honor with Brandon Stephens of Texas Lutheran University. 

Frisby posted nine tackles, including 1.5 for loss, and he intercepted two passes in Southwestern's 20-7 win over Trinity that clinched the outright conference title for the Pirates.

His first interception in the third quarter was returned 47 yards for a touchdown, giving the Bucs a 20-0 lead. The senior linebacker also picked off the final pass of the game.

Frisby's third-quarter pick-six marked Southwestern's first interception return for a score since John Paul Schulze accomplished the feat against Austin College in 1948.

Other outstanding performances in the SCAC:
Senior defensive lineman Brandon Stephens of Texas Lutheran University collected a career-best 6.5 tackles for loss and career-high 13 total tackles, and he also forced a fumble, recorded a sack and intercepted a pass in Saturday's 30-28 home loss to Austin College. Stephens had nine solo tackles with four tackle assists. He had one sack for three yards. Stephens now has 21.0 tackles for loss this season - good for second in the SCAC. Senior defensive lineman Luke Packard of Trinity led the Tigers' defensive efforts in a 20-7 SCAC loss at Southwestern on Saturday afternoon, breaking a 23-year-old Tiger record in the process. After allowing a touchdown on the opening drive of the game, Packard and the Trinity defense gave up just two field goals the rest of the game (the other touchdown was a defensive score by Southwestern). The Tigers closed the game by allowing just six yards over eight drives to keep the score within reach. Packard broke Trinity's single-season sacks record by recording a pair of sacks against the Pirates. He eclipsed the record of 12.5 sacks set by John Tobola during the 1993 season. Packard finished the game with eight total tackles - six solo stops, and 4.0 tackles for loss. Sophomore defensive back Jackson Townsend of Austin College had a big game in the 'Roos 30-28 victory over Texas Lutheran, recovering a fumble and making seven tackles. Townsend's biggest play helped secure the win, when with 14 seconds remaining he broke through the line on a cornerback blitz and sacked the TLU quarterback, pushing the Bulldogs out of field goal range.
