Joe Sessoms, Public Relations Chairman 864-237-8378/[email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Page 1 of 4 "Gardner Webb University Head Coach Carroll McCray commits as guest speaker to 2018 Shrine Bowl Awards Banquet" Jamie Smith, Game Chairman of the 82nd Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas announced today that Gardner Webb University Head Coach Carroll McCray has accepted the invitation to be the special guest speaker for the Shrine Bowl Coaches and Players Awards Banquet on Friday evening, December 14th, 2017 at 6PM, in the Spartanburg Marriott in downtown Spartanburg, South Carolina. Ronnie Blount, Chairman of the Shrine Bowl Board of Governors said, “We are most delighted to have Gardner Webb Head Coach Carroll McCray to speak to our coaches, players, parents and fans of the Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas. As one of the nation’s fine collegiate coaches, his personal commitment to discipline and the importance he places on the standards of excellence on and off the field is extraordinary". Coach McCray continues a rebuilding effort that he embarked upon in 2013, mixing an infusion of youthful talent with veteran experience in 2018. During his time at GWU, McCray has adjusted the culture quickly along with instilling pride into the program for which he once played. McCray’s teams have proven to be giant slayers during his time in Boiling Springs, knocking off five teams ranked in the top-15 since 2013, including last season’s Big South Conference champion and eighth-ranked Charleston Southern on November 5.

A finalist for the Walter Payton Award, Chestnut led the FCS in yards rushing per game (171.0) and all-purpose yards per game (205.2). He rushed for a total of 855 yards in five games and was third in the nation in scoring at 14.8 points per game. Durant tied for the FCS lead in interceptions per game (1.0) and passes defended per game (2.2).
