Heideman GFC/National POW!!!!
LB Darin Heideman, UNI
Sr., 6-0, 227, Council Bluffs (Iowa) St. Alberts High
For the third week in a row, Heideman led UNI in tackles, this time with nine total tackles, including seven solos. He also had a tackle for loss of four yards and recovered an SIU fumble on the UNI 24-yard line with 9:50 left in the game, which led to a touchdown. He had the tackle on a fourth-and-four play which stopped the Salukis on their own 49, which turned the ball back over to the Panthers with 19 seconds left in the game to preserve the win. The win over fourth-ranked Southern Illinois gave UNI a share of the title (with SIU and with Youngstown State) and earned the Panthers a trip to the I-AA playoffs as the league’s automatic qualifier.
