Holland Named to Rimington Trophy Watch List

Army West Point center Bryce Holland was named to the spring watch list for the Rimington Trophy, which is awarded to the top center in college football. In order to create this list, the committee accepted nominations from programs across the country that submitted their current starting centers for consideration. This preseason, centers were nominated from every conference, with 57 total nominees and 27 past watch listers. The Pac-12 leads the list with 10 nominations followed by the ACC with eight. Holland was one of two independent centers to be named to the list, joining Notre Dame's Sam Mustipher. He is also the only service-academy center on the watch list. The Arizona native has played in all 26 games the last two seasons and has won a total of 18 games as the starting center for the Black Knights. He anchored an offensive line that led the nation in rushing yards per game at 362.3 and in total rushing yards with 4,710 in 2017. He also guided the line to block for 50 rushing touchdowns, which was second in the nation and an academy record. Read More
