Rose-Hulman linebacker Grant DePalma (Mt. Prospect, Ill./Prospect) recorded the fifth 20-tackle game in Rose-Hulman football history in Saturday’s 28-26 win over Manchester and has been named the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference Football Player of the Week on defense.
The sophomore tallied 18 solo stops, two assists, six tackles for loss, and four sacks in the win.
The four sacks rank third in single-game school history and is just one-half sack shy of the RHIT single-game record.
RHIT (2-2, 2-0 HCAC) will travel to Hanover for a 2:30 PM kickoff Saturday.
