Colby Wooden and John Samuel Shenker named Iron Man of Week 7

Auburn announced their Week 7 Iron Man of the Week.

Spring practices are rapidly approaching and two of the players working the hardest to get ready are Colby Wooden and John Samuel Shenker.

The duo were named Iron Man of Week 7 for the offense and the defense.

Wooden is one of Auburn’s top returning players and is expected to be a leader for the defense. He is entering his junior season on The Plains and will likely be a starter at defensive end.

He had a great season for Auburn last season, making 61 tackles, 8.5 TFLs, 5.0 sacks, and blocked one kick.

He will be adjusting to a new coach as Jimmy Brumbaugh will take over the defensive line. Jeff Schmedding will be the new defensive coordinator.

Shenker had a record-breaking season for Auburn last year at tight end. He set a new program record for catches (33) and yards (413).

He is the leader of a talented and deep wide receiver room that could have an even bigger role than last season with the departures at wide receiver.
