Dartmouth’s tackling machine with all-conference buzz
Zyion Freer-Brown is a rangy, physical senior linebacker for Dartmouth who brings production and punch: he was a third-team Phil Steele selection after anchoring the Big Green defense in the 2025 season, and Dartmouth listed him as its leading tackler with 65 stops and 2.0 sacks. He fits as a steady, high-effort inside presence who can finish plays, handle run support, and flashes playmaking upside—like his early-game interception against Brown in 2025. The profile says captain-energy, not flash-for-flash’s-sake, which is exactly what a defense loves.
