Bowling Green State University running back Terion Stewart has been named to the Walter Camp Player of the Year Preseason Watch List, as announced by the Walter Camp Foundation on Monday.

He is one of two players from the Mid-American Conference to be named to the list, joining running back Antario Brown from Northern Illinois.

Stewart (Jr., Memphis, Tenn.) earned second-team All-MAC honors in 2023 after finishing the season with 762 rushing yards and eight touchdowns before suffering a season-ending injury in game No. 9.

Stewart’s 4.81 yards per rush after contact ranked No. 2 in the nation among those with 100 rushing attempts. His 78 broken tackles ranked No. 4 in the nation despite playing only nine games.

Through the 2023 season Stewart’s 6.3 yards per carry is No. 1 in the BGSU record book for a career. No former Falcon ever rushed for six-plus yards per carry for their career. Stewart has also been named to the Maxwell Award Preseason Watch List.

The 2024 Player of Year watch list will be narrowed to 10 semifinalists in early November and three finalists will be announced on November 26.

The 2024 Walter Camp Player of the Year recipient, which is voted on by the 133 NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision head coaches and sports information directors, will be announced on ESPN’s College Football Awards Show on December 12.

Walter Camp, “The Father of American football,” first selected an All-America team in 1889. Camp – a former Yale University athlete and football coach – is also credited with developing play from scrimmage, set plays, the numerical assessment of goals and tries and the restriction of play to eleven men per side.

The Walter Camp Football Foundation (www.waltercamp.org) – a New Haven-based all-volunteer group – was founded in 1967 to perpetuate the ideals of Camp and to continue the tradition of selecting annually an All-America team.
