The Maxwell Football Club announced its watch list for the Chuck Bednarik Award, which is given annually to the best defensive player in college football. Two Wahoos made the watch list, and they'll look to become the first UVa winner of the award since its inception in 1995. Both of UVa's players are on the watch list come from the linebacker position. Senior Charles Snowden and junior Noah Taylor made the list. In total, 18 ACC players earned spots on the watch list, including six linebackers from the conference. There are 90 players on the list and 20% of them come from the ACC. That's the most of any conference.

Interestingly, Virginia is the only program in the nation to put two linebackers on the list. Snowden finished last season with 72 tackles, 11 tackles for loss and five sacks. Taylor racked up 57 tackles, including an impressive 13.5 tackles for loss and seven sacks. Both players use elite length to disrupt plays. They combined to break up eight passes a season ago, and Taylor finished the year with two interceptions. - Charlottesville Daily Progress

Standing 6-feet-7-inches tall and weighing 235 pounds, Snowden possesses a blend of speed, size and length that makes NFL scouts drool. He finished the 2019 season with 72 tackles, including 11 tackles for loss and five sacks. Long arms aren't just good for tackling - he's broken up 15 passes in the past two seasons. A menace in passing lanes and a disruptor in the backfield, Snowden has started in all 27 of Virginia's games in the past two seasons. Athlon Sports named him a preseason second team All-ACC player entering the 2020 season. He's a star on the gridiron. "Talking to an NFL scout last week, I told him I don't know if I've been around a player that has as much energy as Charles," co-defensive coordinator Kelly Poppinga said in late May. "Every single day Charles shows up, pumping the arms up, hyped up. It doesn't matter if it's a run, if it's a lift, if it's a practice. Charles is always bringing that energy and trying to be contagious with it."

Snowden brings the on-field energy in bunches. Given his commitment on the field and his engagment off it, Snowden earns the respect of his peers. When the massive linebacker speaks, players listen. "You walk into a room and that guy, man, he fills up the room," Poppinga said. "His personality, his character, the presence that he has, the way that he talks - he kind of has this booming voice - kind of carries through the room, so people listen to him when he talks." - Charlottesville Daily Progress

CMU was down to five men's sports when it cut men's track and field. CMU Athletic Director Michael Alford said in a statement the waiver has been granted for the 2020-21 and the 2021-22 academic years. CMU must add another men's sport by 2022 to remain FBS compliant. - Morning Sun
