UB Athletics

With the 2016-17 season at a close, we’re going to give you one final recap of it all with the third annual Bull Run Awards this week. It’s been another tumultuous year and with some back office chatter we have this year’s recipients all lined up to come at you in the coming days. Here’s our schedule:

Day 1 - Wednesday: Fall Sports

Day 2 - Thursday: Winter Sports

Day 3 - Friday: Spring Sports

Day 4 - Saturday: Coach of the Year, Men's and Women's Rookie of the Year, Clutch Moment of the Year, Fan Favorite Award

Day 5 - Sunday: Team of the Year, Men's Overall Bull of the Year, Women's Overall Bull of the Year

We’ve added a new award to the stable this year as the fan base will be the one to determine the fan favorite award (which might just turn into a meme). All you need to do is pick your favorite player from this past season and drop their name into the google form below:
