Luciano Named CC Co-Defensive Player of the Week
GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Senior defensive back Kyle Luciano (Staten Island, N.Y./St. Joseph-by-the-Sea) of the Gettysburg College football team has been named the Centennial Conference Co-Defensive Player of the Week, the conference office announced on Monday.
Luciano turned in an outstanding defensive performance in Gettysburg’s 21-7 Centennial Conference win at Ursinus College on Saturday. He made six tackles, forced and recovered two fumbles, and intercepted a pass against the previously unbeaten Bears.
After Gettysburg took a 14-7 lead early in the second half, he had a takeaway on back-to-back Ursinus possessions, coming up with an interception and his second forced fumble and recovery of the game.
For the season, Luciano is the team leader in interceptions (two), forced fumbles (two), and fumble recoveries (two). He is also fifth among the Bullets with 23 tackles.
Luciano is Gettysburg's second defensive player of the week selection this season, as senior linebacker Harold Barton earned the same award following the team's 41-10 win over Johns Hopkins University.
Gettysburg (3-2, 2-1 CC) returns to action on Saturday, when it visits Moravian College in another Centennial Conference game starting at 1 p.m.
Also, congratulations to Tom Sturges for making the Conference Honor Roll for his offensive contributions against Ursinus.
