Single game defensive records after six weeks
As Week 7 of the very first AFLE season approaches, we take a look at the single game defensive records that have been set so far. Six weeks in and defenders across the league have already made their mark.
Most tackles in a game
Oluwaferanmi Okunlola, Alpine Rams, Week 4 vs Vienna Vikings: 17 tackles
Most sacks in a game
Alejandro Fernandez, Vienna Vikings, Week 1 vs Berlin Thunder: 3 sacks
Most interceptions in a game
Nazir Streater, Rhein Fire, Week 6 vs Alpine Rams: 2 interceptions
Most tackles for loss in a game
Michael Keshinro, Berlin Thunder, Week 3 vs Firenze Red Lions: 4 tackles for loss
Four records, four different players, four different teams. That variety tells its own story about the strength of defenses across the league. Okunlola’s 17-tackle performance is the kind of number that stands out in any record book, while Keshinro’s four tackles for loss in a single game shows just how disruptive the best defensive linemen in AFLE can be. With ten weeks still to play, the defenders of this league have plenty of time to write new chapters.
