Dale Warren is in a position to compete for the vacated Sam linebacker position for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football team.
He took a big step Friday.
Warren had a sack and an interception, and the defense forced four turnovers in the team’s first scrimmage of the spring at Finley Stadium.
The 6-foot, 220-pound junior was the defensive most valuable player of the 2015 spring game.
“I thought the defense produced today,” Warren said. “I try to take care of the little things first – get my part done and make the plays I’m supposed to make – and it’ll all fall into place for me.”
