"This past Saturday, College fourth-year Von Wooding racked up 13 tackles against Wabash College, giving him a career total of 296. This moved him past his former teammate, Bennett Jackson, OC '17, for second most all time at Oberlin. ""It honestly is more bittersweet than anything,"" Wooding said. ""It reminds me that I don't have very much time left to play this game. Breaking records has always been a goal of mine, but what I cherish way more is the memories that I made along the way and the people who gave me the strength to do it."" Wooding's record further punctuates what has been a strong year for the Oberlin defense. Currently, the Yeomen rank third in the North Coast Athletic Conference in rushing yards allowed per game, third in fumble recoveries, and tied for first in interceptions. Much like his record, Wooding attributes the success of the team's defense to those who have supported both him and the program over the last four years. ""I owe this accomplishment to the Oberlin community, my family and friends back home, and to the other players that have helped transform this program for the better,"" Wooding said."
