Purdue announces individual award winners at 2016 Senior Appreciation Banquet
Purdue’s 2016 season didn’t go as hoped, but the team did start out with a 3-2 overall record.
The problem was its next seven games, as the Boilermakers would lose each of them to close out the season. Despite the 3-9 record and no bowl game to participate in, the team held its annual Senior Appreciation Banquet today and announced each of its award-winners via social media:
2016 Verle H. Campbell Award winners (top scout team players) are Jackson Anthrop (OFF) & Evan Pulliam (DEF). #BoilerUp
