Judkins Recognized as Best Player In Mississippi
Oxford, Miss. – For the third consecutive year, an Ole Miss Rebel has been recognized as the most outstanding player in the state of Mississippi. The C-Spire Conerly Trophy awards ceremony was held Tuesday evening and Ole Miss freshman running back Quinshon Judkins was announced as the winner.
Judkins follows Elijah Moore in 2020 and Matt Corral in 2021 as the most recent Rebel to receive the award.
Judkins burst onto the scene this season as a superstar, racking up 1,476 yards and 16 touchdowns on the ground as a true freshman. He finished the regular season leading the SEC in both categories and finished seventh nationally in total yards.
