Vote for the 2012 Mastodon Offensive Player of the Year

Offense is essentially what has made football what it is. Sure, defense wins championships, but where would teams be without offense? The greatest of the greats played offense. Joe Montana. Tom Brady. Walter Payton. Barry Sanders. Jerry Rice. It's true. Every great team had an offensive superstar. This rings true for the Mastodons. However, what will have to be decided is exactly who is their offensive superstar. Here are the nominees for the 2012 Mastodon Offensive Player of the Year:


Alex Bahnan. Primarily the quarterback, most of his offensive statistics will be passing. He had a 64.9 completion percentage and threw for 28 touchdowns, but only four interceptions. He totaled up 1813 passing yards on the season. In addition to this, he rushed for 254 yards and three touchdowns. He also made eleven receptions for 127 yards. An offensive staple!

Kyle Splaine. The backup quarterback was never short on numbers. He had a 62.2 completion percentage while throwing for 471 yards, eight touchdowns and only five interceptions. Kyle also rushed for 124 yards and four touchdowns and added one receiving touchdowns off eleven receptions and 122 receiving yards. Where would we be without him?

Nick Young. Nick may have not had many passing or rushing stats, but his receiving numbers were off the charts! He rushed for 22 yards, but he had as many receptions as rushing yards, also 22. Those 22 receptions led to 233 receiving yards and nine touchdowns, all of these numbers came in one explosive game, but they're incredible, nonetheless!

Joe Cicero. Joe attempted five passes this season and completed three of them for 25 yards. He also rushed for a team-high 460 yards and three touchdowns on only fifteen attempts. Then, Joe decided to throw in 62 receptions for 837 receiving yards and nine touchdowns! He was pretty much as dominant on offense as he was on the defensive end.

Dave Mello. He had the top completion percentage on the team with 92.3%, this resulted in 129 passing yards. He also added 324 rushing yards out of the quarterback/wildcat slot. It resulted in three touchdowns. To top it all off, Dave caught 48 passes for 580 receiving yards and ten total touchdowns. The numbers put up are crazily well-balanced!
