TIFFANY ON GRECO
2019 – “Creating a more cerebral defense starts with this returning starter, a man who assesses opposing offenses and executes our team schemes like a coach.” 2018 – “With an additional year of fitness training and practice under his belt after redshirting last season, Logan is better prepared for an impactful season.  As one of our more cerebral athletes, he boosts our team defense’s acumen – he possesses a coach-type perspective.  Such an appreciation for the nuances and schemes of our defense will allow Logan to push for significant playing time this spring.”
