WEEK 12 Stats: 5 total tackles, 3.0 TFL, 2.0 sacks, Forced fumble, Pass break-up, QB hurry

Agyemang spearheaded Sacred Heart’s suffocating defensive effort on Senior Day. The senior defensive end totaled five tackles as the Pioneers limited Patriot League member Lehigh to 3.5 yards per play. Agyemang made 3.0 tackles-for-loss highlighted by a fourth-quarter strip sack that allowed SHU to keep a one-point lead with under 3:00 remaining. His first key stop dropped the running back for a two-yard loss on 1st-and-Goal, leading to a turnover on downs in the opening quarter. Agyemang logged a QB hurry on first down, helping the Pioneers force a three-and-out on Lehigh’s last possession of the first half. The 6-foot-4 senior recorded a pass break-up on 3rd-and-3 forced Lehigh to settle for a third-quarter field goal attempt.
