Senior running back Juwan Washington and senior linebacker Kyahva Tezino line up before a play during the Aztecs’ 6-0 win over Weber State on Aug. 31.
Juwan Washington and Kyahva Tezino.
Both seniors and this year’s stars of the Aztec football team, these names are likely the first two that come to mind when thinking about the upcoming season.
It just happens that the two are also best friends off the field.
Four years ago as young freshmen, neither Washington nor Tezino saw the field and ultimately ended up using their redshirt year. Fast forward to the 2019 season, the two would never have imagined being the faces of the programs in their senior year.
