John Redmond Earns Conference Honor

LB John Redmond

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. - Shenandoah University freshman linebacker John Redmond has been named USA South Conference Defensive Rookie of the Week in selections announced Tuesday by the conference office.

Redmond, a Herndon native, made a co-game-high 12 tackles in the Hornets 23-20 loss at Maryville last Saturday afternoon. Two of those stops went for loss and he had one sack.

The honor is Redmond's first of the season, and comes following his first start of the year.

Redmond and his teammates complete the 2008 season on Saturday at home with a 1:00 kickoff against Methodist University.
