Player News - Jackson Taylor Named PSAC East Defensive POW

For his efforts in West Chester's 28-9 win at Kutztown, junior linebacker Jackson Taylor has been named PSAC East Defensive Athlete of the Week.

Taylor had a game-high 11 total tackles including four solo stops and 1.5 sacks. At the end of the first quarter, on a third-and-five, Taylor teamed up with fellow linebacker Khalib Slaughter on a five-yard sack. The ensuing Kutztown field goal attempt sailed wide left. Then at the end of the first half, with the Golden Bears already in West Chester territory, Taylor registered a solo sack of eight yards to thwart any notion of Kutztown pursuing points, desipte 35 seconds being left in the period.

For the season, Taylor is currently seventh in the PSAC in tackles with 87, 11th in sacks with 5.0, and first in fumbles recovered with four.
