Bio

2012: A finalist for the Excellence in Aquatics Award for his recovery from a fractured tibia through hydro therapy.   Emanuel sustained a fractured fibula, when he was hit on the lateral aspect of his lower leg during practice 12 days away from the Eagles' opening game. However, Mike Van Bruggen and the athletic training staff at Carson-Newman had treated a similar injury two years earlier.  Their rehabilitation plan began two days after the injury with Emanuel walking chest deep in their HydroWorx 1200 Series pool. Within two weeks, the athlete had progressed from walking to jogging, to running and eventually sprinting underwater.  After those two weeks of underwater treadmill training and aquatic therapy, the student-athlete transitioned to running on land. He then began non-contact participation and was finally cleared for contact on September 17th -- just one month after sustaining a fibula fracture in practice. Despite missing 3 games, Emanuel went on to make 34 tackles while starting five of C-N's final seven games.  Led Carson-Newman in his second game back with a career high 13 tackles against Brevard (10/27).  Had two tackles for loss, one against Mars Hill (11/10) and another in the quarterfinals agaisnt Valdosta State (12/1). 

2011: Played in eight games, recording 17 tackles with one tackle for a loss… had six tackles against Wingate (10/01) and UNC Pembroke (10/22).

2010: Played in 10 games as a true freshman…Recorded season-high 10 tackles in win at Brevard (10/2)…Had multiple tackles in five other games…Recorded 12 solo tackles.
