Fulton named OAC Football Defensive Player of the Week

The Ohio Athletic Conference has named Muskingum junior linebacker Chaney Fulton the OAC Football Defensive Player of the Week.

Fulton's outstanding play helped propel Muskingum to a 17-13 Senior Day win against rival Marietta on Saturday in McConagha Stadium. The victory also pushed Muskingum's all-time record in the Shriner series against Marietta to 6-0.

Fulton, who helped lead the Muskie defense that held Marietta to just 14 yards in the opening half, ended the contest with a game-high 11 tackles with 2.5 tackles for loss for 19 yards and 1.5 sacks.

This marks the second time this season that Fulton has been honored with OAC Football Defensive Player of the Week accolades.
