The Tulane Green Wave has had one of the most consistent special teams performer in the conference in recent years.
The list includes 30 long snappers from around the country. The award is named for Patrick Mannelly, a former Duke standout who was the Chicago Bears’ long snapper from 1998-2013. The award is being presented for the sixth straight year.
This preseason Phil Steele named him the AAC’s top long snapper. He’s also been a part of one of the most successful stretches in Tulane history. The Green Wave claimed the 2022 AAC crown, the Group of 5 at-large New Year’s Six bowl berth and beat USC in the Cotton Bowl. Sumrall went 23-4 in two seasons at Troy, winning two Sun Belt Conference championships and putting together two of double-digit winning streaks. He was named Sun Belt Conference Coach of Year and was twice named a finalist for the Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year honor.
