Kivon Cartwright will admit that 2014 was one of the hardest years of his life.
The redshirt senior tight end from Pueblo, Colorado was expecting his final season at Colorado State to be a memorable one, but the injury bug had a different idea. He sat out all of spring practice in 2014 with a foot injury that required surgery, then returned for fall camp hoping to put it behind him. During that time, Cartwright was named to the preseason All-Mountain West team while also being named to the Mackey Award Watch List as one of the nation’s premier tight ends.
