Southwest Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Tyson Deen
Tyson Deen was instrumental in extending Southwest's winning streak to six on Friday. Deen did his part (and then some), forcing two fumbles and making eight total tackles for the 'W'. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing two fumbles and making eight total tackles.
Deen must have South San Antonio's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Deen forced a fumble and made 13 total tackles (1.0 for loss) the last time he and the Bobcats duked it out back in October of 2023.
