Barragan, a junior defensive lineman, posted 10 tackles in a win at Loras that saw the BenU defense hold the Duhawks to just 214 total yards, including a stingy 60 on the ground on 34 attempts - an average of 1.8 yards per attempt. He recorded a pair of tackles for loss, resulting in a net loss of seven yards, while also tallying one-half sack and forcing and recovering a fumble as the Eagles moved to 2-0 with another road victory against an American Rivers Conference opponent. In two games, the Benedictine defense has allowed an average of 14.5 points and 180.5 yards per game.
