🔼 Cool Hand Luke. When you show out on a national stage against a top-10 opponent, you’re going to turn some heads.

That’s exactly what junior linebacker Luke Hodge did and earlier this week, he was named the Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Week following his performance in the Trojans' near upset at No. 8 Clemson.

Hodge was the cog in the machine on the two biggest defensive plays of the game as he forced a fumble and deflected a pass that led to a pick six, helping Troy build a 16-0 lead over the Tigers.

🔼 Teeing Off. After a historic spring on the links, the Troy men’s golf squad returned to action this week, teeing off at the Argent Financial Classic in Choudrant, La.

Three Trojans shot under-part in Tuesday’s final round as Troy shot 9-under for the week to finish in a tie for ninth place amongst a loaded field.

Leading the way was junior Pablo Gracia, who fired a second round 69 to earn a top-10 finish for the week.

Today’s Trojan Top Performance, brought to you by Conecuh Sausage, is junior men’s golfer Pablo Gracia. In the Trojans’ opening tournament of the fall, Gracia carded 12 birdies and an eagle over his three rounds as he tied for ninth-place at 7-under. He played a near-perfect round on Tuesday with five birdies and just two bogeys; he made the turn even and played his final nine holes at 3-under.

Trojans Top Performance is brought to you by Conecuh Sausage. Conecuh Sausage is made in Alabama, it’s great on the grill and a fan favorite for tailgating. Conecuh Sausage, the Official Sausage of Troy Athletics.
