Arizona State football’s Case Hatch does a little bit of everything. He plays fullback and H-Back primarily, but he also sees snaps at tight end and on special teams.
No matter where he is on the field, he plays like a man possessed.
The 6-foot-1, 230-pound redshirt junior walked on to the Sun Devils program as a linebacker. He was only a two-star prospect out of high school but had a dominant senior season and recorded 174 total tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss and seven sacks.
Thus, when he arrived on campus in Tempe, Hatch was quickly recognized for being a grinder. He learned that he was on scholarship in December of 2019 and was named a co-captain ahead of this season.
Now he’s an important staple in the Arizona State offense.
Jayden Daniels had 125 rushing yards. Most came on scrambles, but this 22-yard gain was designed. Case Hatch does a great job letting the backer crash on White and block the lone defender at the second level to spring the big play. pic.twitter.com/YlKQL0tMd4

Hatch plays hard and hits harder. The Arizona-native is an absolute maniac on the gridiron.
Through the first four weeks of 2021, Hatch has broken two facemasks in-game. He even had to take the field for a kickoff with a mangled mask before the equipment team could fix it.
Hatch says that he kept the first facemask he broke as a trophy and plans to do so with the second. Assuming that this won’t be the last, he wants to put them all on a chain, which would be awesome.
Make fullbacks great again!
