Will Massey brings production and playmaking at linebacker for Gardner-Webb
Massey enters Gardner-Webb as a physical, stat-stuffing linebacker who showed real disruption in high school, finishing his 2024-25 season at Northwestern with 97 total tackles, 1.5 sacks, 3 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries, while ranking among South Carolina’s better tacklers.[1] His profile suggests a downhill, high-motor defender who makes impact plays, not just routine stops, and that turnover creation is a separator for a linebacker his size.[1] If you want a defender who can chase, hit and create momentum-changing plays, he looks like a fit worth watching.[1][4]
