On defense, freshman linebacker Garrett Dolan leads the SLC and is tied for 13th nationally with 11.0 tackles per game and also has 2.5 sacks, which is tied for third in the conference. Junior defensive end Josh Jones has a league-leading three of HBU's 13 sacks, which is the second-highest team total and most per game in the SLC. The Huskies have scored on defense in all three games, getting a safety against McMurry, a fumble return for a TD at Northern Colorado, and a safety and a pick six at Texas College. Special teams have also been a strength for HBU, with junior kicker Travis Shinn ranking second in the SLC with nine points per game and freshman punter Christian Guzman also ranking second in the league with a 44.5-yard average.
