PA coach gets commissioner’s award;
Wildcat running back runs off with league MVP

Commissioner Trzeciak has handed out his post-season awards, and the PA Wildcats walked away with both honors. Here is the text of the Commissioner’s press release:

It is my honor and privilege to choose the Outstanding Manager and Player awards for the FFL for 1997.

This year things were a lot easier than last year. Without further ado…

Manager of the Year – Like there was any doubt.

Ron Yeany – Pennsylvania Wildcats – Ying completed a near perfect season (one loss) while also amassing the most points by any single franchise in 1997. Congratulations to Ying. You deserve it!!

Hats off to the Weaver coalition, owners of the Syracuse Blizzard, for a very impressive and somewhat surprising Fantasy Bowl run.

FFL Player of the year –

Barry Sanders – Pennsylvania Wildcats – Running Back, Detroit Lions – I did not take too much time deciding this one either. I hope you will all agree that Barry’s league leading 255 points and his importance to the success of his franchise make this a no brainer.

I hope everyone had fun and we’ll do it all again in about 8 months.
