The 6-foot-4, 215-pound safety had three tackles, one pass breakup, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery en route to a big Brickies win.  The Class of 2028 recruit has several qualities – size, closing speed, strength, and a lean frame – that upper-tier college coaches covet.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

49-24 loss.  Despite the loss, Thembulembu had 21 carries for 125 yards and one rushing touchdown.  He also had three catches for 33 yards, proving his dual-threat ability.  He is tough to bring down, consistently finishes forward on contact, and is a key cog in the Tigers' offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

first varsity start against [player_tooltip player_id='1630653' first='Ben' last='Davis'].  The defensive back displayed excellent ball skills and flashed his excellent arm length.  A native of South Bend, he figures to be a big piece on Cathedral's defense now and in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block
