Amherst’s Ryan Kish was named the Ohio Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Week after his outstanding game last Saturday in a 39-9 win over Marietta.

Kish had a game-high 12 tackles, including 2.5 quarterback sacks for minus 14 yards and three total tackles for minus 16 yards. Kish also forced a Pioneer quarterback to hurry a pass that was intercepted and returned for a touchdown.

This season, Kish tops B-W in tackles with 35, QB sacks with 3.5 and tackles for loss with 5.5. He also returned a fumble 23 yards for a touchdown in B-W’s 35-20 win versus Heidelberg University on Sept. 18.
