Jensen, a senior captain who has played his career as a wide receiver, suited up as a linebacker for just the second time in his career and tied the school single-game record for sacks as Utica defeated Ithaca for the first time in the program’s history, 20-15. All three of his sacks came in the second half, including one on the next-to-last play of the game to seal the come-from-behind victory. Jensen totaled seven tackles, including six solo hits, and his sacks were for a total loss of 19 yards.
