University of Tulsa defensive end Derrick Alexander has been named to the 2015 Watch List for the Rotary Lombardi Award, as the Rotary Lombardi Award Committee announced today an updated watch list. Thirty-three players of the 175 were added to the final update of the RLA Watch List that was released today.
Alexander joins teammate Garrett Stafford, a senior offensive guard, who was named to the Rotary Lombardi Award when the original watch list was first announced in July.
Eligibility for the Rotary Lombardi Award is limited to down linemen, end-to-end, either on offense or defense, who set up no farther than 10 yards to the left or right of the ball, or linebackers who set up no farther than five yards deep from the line of scrimmage.
