Former Slippery Rock University running back Wes Hills was named NFLPA Collegiate Bowl MVP on Saturday.
Hills played on the National Team, and gained 78 yards on ten carries and also scored one touchdown. The American Team ended up winning the game by a final of 10-7.
During his one season at SRU in 2018, Hills broke the single season rushing record by running for over 1,700 yards despite missing nearly three full games. Next Saturday (January 26th), Hills will also play in the Senior Bowl. He will be one of three Division II players in the game, and the only D-II player on the South Team. You can catch the game on the NFL Network, with kickoff set for 2:30pm.
