CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - North Carolina senior Shakeel Rashad was named ACC Linebacker of the Week for his performance in the Tar Heels' 53-14 win over North Carolina A&T.
Rashad forced a fumble, intercepted a pass, broke up another and had two tackles – including a 10-yard tackle for loss – in the win over the Aggies. In the first quarter, Rashad forced a fumble that was scooped up by teammate Sam Smiley and returned 52 yards to set up a UNC score. On the next NC A&T possession, Rashad picked off a pass to stop a promising Aggies' drive.
