ST. LOUIS -- Indiana State University claimed two of the top five honors in the Missouri Valley Football Conference, the league office announced Wednesday, Nov. 21, as selected by a vote of the league's head coaches, media and sports information directors.
Curt Mallory was selected as the Bruce Craddock Coach of the Year for the first time in his career, while quarterback Ryan Boyle earned the Valley's Newcomer of the Year award.
It marks the first time since 2010 (Trent Miles) that ISU has been represented with a Coach of the Year honor and the first time since 2001 (Julian Reese, QB) that the Sycamores have had a Newcomer of the Year.
