Trio of Hornets along with head coach among nominees

LITTLE ROCK – Bryant Hornets Ren Hefley, Latavion Scott, Kajuan Robinson and head coach Buck James are among those included on the annual watch lists for the 2018 Farm Bureau Insurance Awards.

The Farm Bureau Insurance Awards honor Arkansas’ top offensive player, defensive player and coach of the year for each classification. The veteran staff at Hooten’s Arkansas Football selects three finalists for each category, and those 45 finalists and their families are invited to attend the Farm Bureau Insurance Awards on Dec. 10.

Hefley, a senior quarterback, has connected on 104 of 199 passes for 1,294 yards and 13 touchdowns, while rushing for a net of 142 yards. Scott, a senior running back, has eclipsed 1,000 yards for the second season in a row, picking up 1,076 through nine games. Robinson, a defensive tackle, has been in on 34 tackles including 11 tackles for loss and four sacks. James has led the Hornets to a 7-2 overall mark with the two setbacks by the combined total of 7 points.

David L. Moore, Senior Vice President – State Manager for Southern Farm Bureau Casualty Insurance Company, said: “This list of players includes some of the best student-athletes in our state, and Farm Bureau Insurance wishes each of them continued success the rest of the season. Farm Bureau Insurance is proud to honor excellence as the title sponsor of this outstanding event.”

Farm Bureau Insurance has supported education and community involvement in Arkansas for more than 65 years.
