MSFL Student-Athletes Earn CSFL Hub All-American Honors; Midway’s Carter Named National Offensive Player of the Year

The Midwest Sprint Football League was strongly represented in this year’s CSFL Hub All-American selections, as student-athletes from across the conference earned First Team, Second Team, Third Team, and Freshman Team recognition. The headline honor belonged to Midway University sophomore quarterback Christian Carter, who was named the William R. Wagner National Offensive Player of the Year after one of the most prolific seasons in modern sprint football history.

Carter led the nation in both passing yards (2,188) and passing touchdowns (25) while adding 322 rushing yards and 3 rushing touchdowns, guiding Midway to one of the nation’s most explosive offenses. He also led the Eagles in total offense and finished among the top performers nationally in nearly every major statistical category.
