The 6-foot-2, 236-pound Diaz matched his single-game, career-high in tackles (nine) during a game earlier this season. The four-year letterman and starter has more than 60 stops during his career with the black and gold.

Tigers head coach Tim Grady said, “He is a leader in the classroom leading the senior class in academics. He leads the weight room with maxes in all core lifts. He leads on the field. He’s a man of few words, but when he speaks everyone tunes in. In 19 years of coaching, I have coached none finer than this young man. He is an absolute joy to coach.”
