Zach Allen Named to Ted Hendricks Award Watch List

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Ted Hendricks and the Ted Hendricks Foundation are pleased to announce the release of the initial watch list for the 2018 edition of the Ted Hendricks Award, which honors the top defensive end in college football. Boston College senior defensive end Zach Allen was one of 36 players named to the watch list entering the 2018 season.

As in past years, this list will remain open and subject to change throughout the season. The final version of the Watch List will be issued prior to our first ballot in late November.

Allen, a Preseason All-America selection, was one of two defensive linemen nationally in 2017 that recorded 100 or more tackles. An All-ACC honorable mention pick last year, Allen finished the season with 100 tackles, 15.5 tackles-for-loss and 6.0 sacks. The 15.5 TFLs ranked Allen in the top-10 in BC single-season history.

BC opens the 2018 season Saturday, Sept. 1 vs. UMass at Alumni Stadium. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. Season tickets are still available by visiting BCEagles.com or by calling 617-552-GOBC.
