Wildcats Sports writer Daniel Berk of Tucson.com wrote an excellent piece on true freshman MLB Tre Tyler and what it was like for him during the Nevada game when he experienced all of his more senior classmen going down in the fight one by one.

According to Berk, Tre’s time playing middle linebacker was ‘surreal’ as he played for a lot longer than he ever imagined to play in the game. Here are a few quotes from Berks’s interview with Tre:

"“I would dream about going in for a series or two.” “It felt unreal, it was a pretty humbling experience going out there and seeing what it’s like to  go full speed in a game. It was my first time.”"

What is more impressive is that Tre played hurt, ‘Tyler made four tackles while dealing with an injury of his own. He rolled his ankle up on a tackle in the second quarter and exited for a couple of series’. He returned after halftime and played the entirety of the second half.’
