COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri quarterback Connor Bazelak shared the Southeastern Conference's freshman of the year award as voted by the league coaches, the SEC announced Tuesday.
Bazelak, a redshirt freshman, split the award with Auburn running back Tank Bigsby.
Three other Mizzou players earned recognition on the coaches' first- and second-team All-SEC teams: Linebacker Nick Bolton and defensive end Trajan Jeffcoat were named to the first-team defense, while running back Larry Rountree III was named to the second team.
Bazelak also appeared on the SEC's All-Freshman team, along with Mizzou kicker Harrison Mevis.
The Associated Press will release the media's All-SEC honors on Wednesday.
