Chase Young Ties Ohio State's Single-Season Sack Record

Chase Young has officially made Ohio State history.

With his first sack in Saturday's game against Penn State, Young ties the school record for most sacks in a single season by an Ohio State player.

That sack brought him to 14 sacks for the season, tying the previous single-season high of 14 sacks by Vernon Gholston, who had held the school record since 2007.

Young's record-tying sack came in his first game back from a two-game suspension for an NCAA violation and in just his ninth game of the season, and with as many as four games still potentially remaining after Saturday for the Buckeyes this year, Young has the potential to build upon his record-breaking season and set a mark for pass-rushing productivity well above any that had ever been achieved in one year by an Ohio State player.
