Defensive player of the year for his conference voted on by all the coaches of all the teams. Long story short Tyler is very well deserving of the accolade but I am far more overwhelmed by who you are off the field Tyler. You are a natural leader. Nothing but success ahead for U!

I want to thank The University of St Francis for giving me an opportunity to play at the next level! Forever grateful #AGTG Thank you Dan Stekala for the offer! Coach Duarte 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐎𝐍 𝐅𝐎𝐎𝐓𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐋

While playing through adversity, he did not let up! A Great Football Player, and An Even Better Young Man!

Check out some of my most exciting plays from my Senior SZN!(2024 DB➕WR) #1‼️ Blessed and Thankful to GOD for allowing me to fight through adversity and play my heart out this season❤️#AGTG Coach Duarte 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐎𝐍 𝐅𝐎𝐎𝐓𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐋 DEEP DISH FOOTBALL Peter "Coach Big Pete" Leinweber Top Gun QB hudl.com/v/2MMZYJ

The tape says it all. Often times DT is the smallest on the field but has the heart of a lion. Willing to put his body on the line every single play. It’s not the size of the Dawg, it’s the impact of the bite. Can’t wait to see you on the next level ✊🏽 (he also is nice on O👀)

Pulled him up as a sophomore and he made an immediate impact saving a TD (stupid call from the DC - thanks DT) he continued to improve and become a leader. He is the exact person you want and value as a student athlete. Nobody works harder and does things THE RIGHT WAY like DT.

Thank you SXU Football for the game day invite! Was great to see the cougars take the W‼️ Had a great time on campus

Let’s get to work🤘‼️🟢⚪️

Very fortunate to even be a thought for this award. The nomination alone means the world to me because Mike McGreevy falls under every category of potential awards. Robbie Gould was a big addition to Rolling Meadows , but don’t sleep on Mr. McGreevy! ✊🏽💪🏽 #PurestOfPure
