Dylan is one of Swag's "Original 6," as one of 6 people to have been on the team since their debut as the Punishers in winter 2009. He spent the team's first two seasons as the center and primary underneath receiver before becoming the quarterback in their third season. Once Tasher got his hands on the job he never looked back, exploding for 2,602 yards (third in the league) and 49 touchdown passes (one shy of the league lead) in fall 2009. His ability to spread the ball around to different receivers placed three different Basterds receivers in the top 20: Taylor Lucero (5th), Jason Holte (7th), and Cody Inglis (16th). Dylan backed up his breakout season with an impressive 2,552 yards and 41 touchdowns in winter 2010 despite battling an injured throwing elbow for most of the season. In Swag's playoff season of summer 2010 Tasher posted 2,355 yards and 41 touchdowns.

Memorable Moment: Inglourious Basterds v. MARTY, Winter 2010 Week 6
There's nothing more fun than beating up on your friends. This was the case when IB met their high school friends' team MARTY twice in the winter season, each time doubling up their opponents. In the second matchup Tasher threw the ball excellently, but with Jason Holte suffering from a serious case of the drops (at least 6 of them, 2 of which were wide open touchdowns) Dylan was forced to take matters into his own hands. Playing safety and with Jeff Keller lined up on the opposite side as quarterback, Tasher took advantage of a man that he had played football with since he was a little kid and picked Keller's desperation toss off, taking it all the way back for a touchdown. Basterds win 28-14.
