Tampa Bay Tech rising senior strong safety/linebacker Tim Stewart picked up his second Division-I scholarship offer in less than 48 hours when Ohio University sent a written letter to Titans coach C.C. Culpepper on Wednesday.

Tuesday, Stewart landed his first written offer when Iowa State made the three-year starter an official pitch.

The 6-foot, 200-pound Stewart played his freshman and sophomore seasons for TBT at linebacker. There, Stewart led the team in tackles. Last season, Stewart switched to strong safety, where he ran back two interceptions for touchdowns and, also playing special teams, blocked four punts. He is expected to anchor the Titans defense this fall as the squad seek a return trip to the Class 5A state playoffs.

Culpepper said Stewart has also received interest from South Florida, North Carolina State and the University of Miami.
