NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.. – Oregon senior defensive end Nick Reed is one of twenty collegiate defensive players to earn a spot on the Lott Trophy quarterfinalist list, it was announced today.
Each of the 20 players have performed at a high level on the football field and exhibited selfless character off the field.
Reed, a 6-2, 255-pound senior from Trabuco Canyon, Calif., leads the Pac-10 and ranks 10th (tie) nationally in sacks with 8.0. He is also second in the conference with an average of 1.44 tackles for loss per game.
Named after Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott, The Lott Trophy is awarded to college football’s Defensive IMPACT Player of the Year. Now in its fifth year, The Lott Trophy is the first and only college football award to equally recognize athletic performance and the personal character attributes of the player.
“This is another impressive list of candidates,” said Bob Cristiano, the President of the IMPACT Foundation, the sponsors of the award. “They represent the best in college football and a great cross-section of our country. It will be difficult to single out just one of these outstanding student-athletes.”
