News mentions
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – There were plenty of players that had standout performances for the Tennessee Tech football team this season, but if you were to single it down to the one player that probably meant the most to the Golden Eagles in the 2018 campaign, senior kicker/punter Nick Madonia would be the overwhelming response. The numbers he put up, the situations he faced and the leadership he provided were evident all season, and it made him an easy selection for the 2018 Robert Hill Johnson Award winner. The award, the Tech football team’s highest honor, is voted on by his teammates.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – As Tennessee Tech closes its football season on Saturday, it will be a day of celebration as the Golden Eagles will honor 12 of its own in a Senior Day recognition. Tech hosts Eastern Kentucky in the finale with kickoff scheduled for 1:35 p.m. Roger Ealey and Grant Swallows will provide broadcast duties for 98.5 KISS FM and the Golden Eagle Sports Network, while Dylan Vazzano, Sam Brooks and Wayne Anderson will handle the task for WCTE and ESPN+ (subscription required).
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee Tech head football coach Dewayne Alexander knew exactly what the gravity of the situation was as he was coming into his first Ohio Valley Conference Football Media Day as the leader of the Golden Eagles. After a 1-10 season last year, a last-place projection was pretty much expected. However, that doesn’t mean Alexander and his Tech players are going to be complacent with the ninth-place pick.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Motivated, proactive and determined. Those are pretty good words to describe Tennessee Tech junior defensive tackle Anthony Akers, who has proven time and time again how much of a leader he has been for the Golden Eagle football team. Akers may not be the most outspoken member of the team, but he doesn’t have to be. He leads by example and serves as a beacon for his teammates to follow. The Murfreesboro native’s efforts off the gridiron certainly haven’t gone unnoticed in his own field of study as Akers was recently named the winner of the College of Education’s Go-Getter Award.
