Defensive Player of the Week
Asher Feddes, Montana Tech
Linebacker I Sophomore I Belgrade, Mont.
Feddes, a sophomore linebacker from Belgrade, Mont., is the Defensive Player of the Week.
Feddes helped No. 5 Montana Tech post a dominant 48-0 shutout of (RV) Ottawa (Ariz.) in their season home opener. Feddes recorded six tackles (three solos, three assists), one tackle for loss, a half-sack and an interception.
Feddes’ interception came on the first play of the third quarter and helped ignite a stretch in which the Orediggers scored two touchdowns in five minutes to break the game open. His performance helped MT’s defense limit Ottawa to just 117 total yards and eight first downs in the shutout victory.
This is Feddes’ first career Erck Hotels / Frontier Conference Player of the Week award.
