Cody Simon has added yet another accolade to his illustrious final year at Ohio State.
The “Block O” wearer, captain, leading tackler and first-team All-Big Ten linebacker for the national champion Ohio State football team was honored for both his athletic and academic success on Monday night as he was named OSU’s male recipient of the Big Ten Medal of Honor, which honors one male and female athlete from each institution who demonstrated excellence on and off the field throughout their college career.
Makenna Webster, who was both a unanimous first-team All-Big Ten honoree in field hockey last year and a top player for the women’s hockey team as it made three straight national championship games (with a win in 2024) over the past three years, earned the Big Ten Medal of Honor for female Ohio State athletes.
