Friday--October 30th, 2015




Blake Frohnapfel received a major award yesterday as he was named a finalist William V. Campbell Trophy. Whipple said last night during the Coach's show that not only was Frohnapfel making a 3.67 average, he was doing it while taking an overload in courses at the Isenberg School of Business.

Being named a finalist means Frohnapfel receives a scholarship and he will attend the award ceremony in New York city on December 8th.
