RICHMOND, Ky. – Eastern Kentucky's Roland Walder will showcase his talents before NFL scouts after accepting an invitation to the 2021 FCS National Bowl.

The FCS National Bowl is an annual post-season college football all-star game consisting of the top players from college football FCS schools. The game will be played on Dec. 12, 2021, at Daytona Stadium in Daytona Beach, Fla. 

Walder started all 11 games on the defensive line for the Colonels. He finished the season tied for the team lead with 4.0 sacks and ranked second on the defense with 7.0 tackles for loss. His five pass deflections were the most of any defensive lineman in the ASUN this season. 

The Dayton, Ohio, native will be the fourth Colonel to accept an invitation to the FCS Bowl. Kicker Ben Deighton was invited in 2015, while wide receiver Devin Borders and defensive back Kiante Northington were part of the event in 2016.
