CHESTNUT HILL, MA – The honors continue to roll in for freshman quarterback Trevor Lawrence, but the award he won Saturday night didn’t quite fit.
Each year the Boston Gridiron Club, the MVP of the winner of the Clemson-Boston College game wins the Leather Helmet Award. The award, named the O’Rourke-McFadden Trophy, was won by Lawrence after he led the Tigers to a 27-7 victory with 295 yards passing and a touchdown through the air.
Lawrence is the second Clemson football freshman to win the award after running back Travis Etienne won the honor last season.
