His four tackles for loss are seventh most in a FCS game this season and led a Bulldogs defense that held Stetson to a school-record low zero net rushing yards (178 total yards). Marrin set the tone with his first two stops, a two-yard tackle for loss then a six-yard sack to help stall Stetson’s game-opening drive. He finished with two sacks as part of a six-tackle (four solo) performance.
