Bulldogs' Gabriel earns preseason honor
| Defensive tackle Gavril Gabriel of the University of Redlands landed on the Consensus Draft Services Division III Preseason All-American second team. Gabriel, who will be a junior in the fall, helped the Bulldogs win their 28th Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) Championship and advance to the NCAA playoffs for the fifth time in school history last season. He led the Bulldogs with 15 tackles for a loss of 69 yards, including nine sacks for a loss of 58 yards. Overall, Gabriel tallied 52 tackles to rank third on the team while recording eight quarterback hurries. Earlier this year, he earned first team All-SCIAC accolades and second team d3football.com honors. Claremont-Mudd-Scripps linebacker Ashton Clarke earned honorable mention. He was the leading tackler in the SCIAC last season. |
