Deven Sullivan named Tech Athletics' Unsung Leader Award winner for September

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – As the fall started, it looked like it was going to be a breakout season for Tennessee Tech senior running back Deven Sullivan. But during the Kennesaw State game, Sullivan had a season-ending injury, curtailing those hopes. However, that hasn’t deterred him.

Freshman runners among highlights of Tech football's second scrimmage

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – What a difference a week makes. After a good showing in their first scrimmage of fall camp, the Tennessee Tech football team put together a much improved effort on the field on Sunday. While there’s still some kinks to work out, there was still plenty for head coach Dewayne Alexander to be happy about. Deven Sullivan scored on the first drive of the day, scoring from four yards out. Tech’s defensive units then put together some great stops, resulting in seven drives with nothing to show for the offense. Brian Thompson picked off a pass, while Andrew Swicegood and Chris Tucker came away with sacks.

Positives abound in Tech football's first scrimmage

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – As the Tennessee Tech football team finished the first full week of fall camp, the Golden Eagles closed out Saturday with their first scrimmage. It was nowhere near perfect – not that was expected this early into camp – but it did give the Golden Eagles an idea where to go next as they continue their preparations for the 2018 campaign. “We’re making a lot of progress,” said Tech head coach Dewayne Alexander. “We did a lot of good things, but we still have a lot to do. We threw a lot of situations at them over the last few practices – certain areas of the field, two-minute drills, backed up, red zone, 3rd and long, 3rd and short. There’s a lot of stuff we’re still installing, and the nature of it – you’re throwing a lot of stuff in, after day two or three it starts running together.
