After the USC Trojans were left out of All Pac-12 honors for the 2018 season, the announcement of redshirt freshman Jay Tufele making The Athletic’s All-American list is a welcome and well-deserved sight.
Redshirt freshman defensive lineman Jay Tufele had an impressive season with USC this year. Playing in 12 games for the Trojans, he recorded 23 total tackles, four and a half tackles for loss (19 yards), three sacks, and one fumble recovery for a touchdown.
