ORANGE, Calif. — Nic Ramos from Chapman football and David Yacoub Chapman men's water polo have been named SCIAC Defensive Athlete of the Week for their respective sports. Ramos recorded three sacks in a massive conference game win on Halloween over Pomona-Pitzer 35-2. That win clinched the top seed in the SCIAC Championship game on Nov. 14. Ramos had three of Chapman's six total sacks on the day. 

David Yacoub stepped up massively for men's water polo. The sophomore goalkeeper recorded a career-high 16 saves in a massive 11-10 conference win at Redlands. He also recorded another eight saves at Pomona-Pitzer on Wednesday evening. The Panthers remain in the hunt for a SCIAC post season birth because of Yacoub stepping up. Men's water polo has one week remaining of their regular season.
