Through the first six games in 2016, junior defensive lineman Okon Godwin had produced five total tackles, three assisted and a half sack. This season, Godwin has recorded 12 tackles with 1.5 tackles for a loss and two quarterback hurries on a dramatic increase in playing time through the same amount of game. Anchoring the defensive end position with seniors Tee Sims and Caleb Fuller, Godwin has been watching and waiting for his moment to shine.
“It is really just working and experience. The experience on the field last year helped me a lot this year,” Godwin said.
