Ron Stone Jr. put on a clinic this past weekend in Pullman and was named both Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week and Defensive Lineman of the Week on Monday. His performance in the 31-22 upset of #19 Wisconsin over the weekend had all of Martin Stadium on their feet from start to finish.
He is the fourth player to be named winner of both awards joining USC’s Tuli Tuipulotu (2022), Oregon’s Kayvon Thibodeaux (twice in 2021) and Utah’s Bradlee Anae (2019) and the first Coug to win a weekly defensive award this year. Brennan Jackson won Defensive Lineman of the Week in week 11 of last year and Daiyan Henley won Defensive Player of the Week during week 3 of last year.
