Morrissette was named all-conference for the first time. Barrett moved to linebacker for his junior and senior seasons, after playing running back for his first two years. Morrissette finished the season third in the conference with 93 tackles, including 6.5 for a loss and two fumble recoveries.
Other notable performances were turned in by Ryan Slager, who recorded a conference-leading 134 tackles. That total ranked him third in the country (!) and is the fifth best season in school history, right behind David Ternes' 140 tackles last year. As mentioned earlier, Emmi Sandoval set the new standard with a 94 yard kickoff return, and Sam Poulos threw five touchdowns against Lawrence, which ties for the third best single game total in school history. Poulos finished both the 2014 and 2015 seasons with five touchdown passes in the final game.
