WEEK 8 Stats:

Lee was the Red Flash’s leading tackler during a dominant defensive effort against LIU. Pitching SFU’s first shutout since 2015, the senior linebacker logged 4.0 tackles-for-loss and also blocked a field goal for the second game in a row. Lee totaled seven tackles for a defense that limited LIU to 2.8 yards per play. He hit the receiver for no gain on the second play of the game, contributing to a three-and-out for the Sharks. Lee ended LIU’s next possession by blocking a 31-yard field goal attempt, keeping SFU’s 3-0 lead intact. The veteran linebacker derailed the Sharks’ opening possession of the second half, dropping the ball carrier behind the line of scrimmage on back-to-back plays to force a punt after LIU was set up with a 2nd-and-2 at the SFU 39-yard line. Lee added a sack on a second-down play with SFU holding a 16-0 lead early in the fourth quarter.
