MONMOUTH, Ill. —
Monmouth College linebacker Marc Artozqui (Peoria,
Ill./Richwoods) helped the Fighting Scots grab sole possession of
first place in the Midwest Conference and was named the MWC’s
Defensive Performer of the Week.
Artozqui recorded 17 tackles in the Scots’ 38-35 come-from-behind
win over Ripon Saturday to keep Monmouth unbeaten on the year. The
senior’s performance was just three tackles shy of Tim Hinson’s
school record set in 1990. The Scots defense held Ripon’s
run-oriented option attack to just 170 rushing yards
– their
second lowest total of the season.
Averaging 10 tackles per game, Artozqui leads the Scots with 70
stops. He is third in the MWC.
