DETROIT – University of Indianapolis graduate
Loren Strickland made history this week, earning a spot on the Detroit Loins' offical roster. The 2022 UIndy graduate and Lake of the Hills, Ill., native became the first UIndy alum to make a modern-day NFL 53-man roster.
Â
Strickland played four seasons with the Greyhounds (2018-21) before earning a Finance degree in December of 2021 from the University's School of Business. A
2019 All-GLVC First Team honoree, he helped the Greyhounds to a pair of GLVC titles and two NCAA DII playoff appearances.
Â
By surviving the final round of cuts, Strickland hopes to be with Lions when the team opens the regular season on Sept. 8, hosting the Rams in the Sunday night game.
