Related Topics: Defensive tackle

Florida Atlantic defensive tackle Shalom Ogbonda doesn’t have to look too far for motivation.

He knows this is his final opportunity to impress the coaching staff and, more importantly, himself. This is his senior season.

It’s now or never.

"I believe I can do better this year," Obgbonda said after Saturday’s practice. "This is my last year. I’ve got big goals for myself and big goals for the team. I’ve got to have a great year."

Ogbonda’s personal challenge became even more important when Ray Ellis was lost for the season because of a knee injury.
