When your nickname is "Ray Lewis," you know you have high expectations. Manjunatha S.K. does not just have that "52" on his jersey, but he has proven to be one of the hardest hitting linebackers in the whole league. He can hit hard, while also wrapping up well, which is still something the league is getting use to doing. It is not about how hard you hit, but that you get the ball-handler down on the initial tackle.
In seven games for the Bangalore Warhawks, "Ray Lewis" and his defense gave up a total of 66 points, which was fourth best in the league. The most points they gave up was against the runner-up Delhi Defenders in the semi-finals.
Expect Manjunatha to come back strong next season, and will most likely have more help from a now experienced defense.
