    SGT. YORK TROPHY In July 2007, the Nashville Sports Council and the Ohio Valley Con- ference announced the creation of the Sergeant York Trophy which goes to the winner of the quadrangular season football series between the four Ohio Valley Conference schools located in the state of Tennessee – Austin Peay State University, University of Tennessee at Martin, Tennessee State University and Tennessee Technological University. The award is only the second traveling trophy that involves more than two teams in college sports; the other is the Commander in Chief’s Trophy which has been contested between Air Force, Army and Navy annually since 1972. The award is presented by Delta Dental of Tennessee and Farm Bureau Health Plans of Tennessee. In a close race, Tennessee State and Austin Peay shared the inaugural award, fi nishing with identical 2-1 records in 2007. Tennessee State took the trophy home with it thanks to a one-point victory in overtime over the Governors; that game was decided by a blocked extra point by NFL First Round Draft Pick Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. The award is named in honor of Alvin C. York, the most noted Soldier of World War I. As a corporal in the 2nd battalion, 328th Infantry, in the Battle of the Meuse River-Argonne (Oct. 8, 1918), York and seven other soldiers captured 132 prisoners, was promoted to sergeant and received the Distinguished Service Cross, the French Croix de Guerre, the French Legion of Honor, the Croce di Guerra of Italy and the War Medal of Montenegro. Upon his return to the United States in 1919, he was bestowed the Congressional Medal of Honor.

    SGT. YORK TROPHY PRESENTED BY DELTA DENTAL OF TENNESSEE In July 2007, the Nashville Sports Council and the Ohio Valley Conference announced the creation of the Sergeant York Trophy which goes to the winner of the quadrangular season football series between the four Ohio Valley Conference schools located in the state of Ten- nessee – Austin Peay State University, University of Tennessee at Martin, Tennessee State University and Tennessee Technological University. The award is only the second traveling trophy that involves more than two teams in col- lege sports; the other is the Commander in Chief’s Trophy which has been contested between Air Force, Army and Navy annually since 1972. In a close race, Tennessee State and Austin Peay shared the inaugural award, fi nishing with identical 2-1 records in 2007. Tennessee State took the trophy home with it thanks to a one-point victory in overtime over the Governors; that game was decided by a blocked extra point by NFL First Round Draft Pick Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. Tennessee State has won the most Sgt. York Championships (5). The award is named in honor of Alvin C. York, the most noted Soldier of World War I. As a corporal in the 2nd battalion, 328th Infantry, in the Battle of the Meuse River-Argonne (Oct. 8, 1918), York and seven other soldiers captured 132 prisoners, was promoted to sergeant and received the Distinguished Service Cross, the French Croix de Guerre, the French Legion of Honor, the Croce di Guerra of Italy and the War Medal of Montenegro. Upon his return to the United States in 1919, he was bestowed the Congressional Medal of Honor.
