LANCASTER, Pa. -- Muhlenberg's Michael Hnatkowsky and Nate Milne repeated as major award winners while Johns Hopkins' Luke Schuermann collected the other two top honors to lead the 2021 All-Centennial Conference Football Team.
Hnatkowsky, a senior quarterback for the Mules, was named Offensive Player of the Year for the second straight season after throwing for a league-leading 38 touchdowns and 297.4 passing yards per game. He leads the CC in total touchdowns (40), 11 more than the next-closest player. Hnatkowsky also leads the CC in completion rate (72.5%), yards per attempt (9.1), and efficiency rating (180.5). Hnatkowsky will complete his career as the most decorated passer in conference history, as he already holds the career records in yards (11,806), touchdown passes (135), completions (905), and 200-yard passing games (38), with the 2021 NCAA Tournament still upcoming. His 135 career passing touchdowns is currently tied for sixth place on the all-time Division III list. With his second-straight Offensive Player of the Year award, Hnatkowsky becomes the fifth player in Centennial history to receive the award multiple times, and the first-ever from Muhlenberg. It marks the seventh time a Mule has earned Offensive Player of the Year.
JHU's Scheurmann was selected as both Defensive Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year, becoming the first player in conference history to receive both of those awards in the same season. He is the ninth Blue Jay to win Defensive Player of the Year and second to win Rookie of the Year. The sophomore defensive lineman was a force up front for Hopkins, leading the conference with 11 sacks while also registering 3.7 tackles per game, 17 tackles for a loss, and forcing four fumbles. Scheurmann and the JHU defense limited opponents to a conference-best 11.7 points per game throughout the regular season.
Milne collected Coach of the Year accolades for the third consecutive season after guiding Muhlenberg to a 9-1 overall regular season record, an 8-1 CC mark, and the Mules' third-straight and 12th overall CC title. Muhlenberg and Hopkins were named co-champions after both notched 8-1 CC records, but the Mules earned the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament by virtue of the head-to-head tiebreaker over the Blue Jays. Since the award was instituted in 2008, Milne is the first coach to secure the honor in three-straight seasons. He also joins former Hopkins coach Jim Margraff as one of just two coaches to receive the award three times or more.
Four players were unanimous All-Centennial first team picks - Scheurmann, Hopkins offensive lineman JR Woods, Ursinus running back Samuel Ragland, and Dickinson linebacker Brian Snow.
A total of 19 players were repeat All-CC selections, including nine who have now earned all-star honors at least three times. Ragland and Dickinson's offensive lineman Cuba Birnbaum received All-CC awards for the fourth time in their careers, while JHU defensive back Macauley Kilbane was named to the first team for the third time, as was Ragland. Ragland and Kilbane become the 52nd and 53rd players in the 39-year history of the conference to earn first team All-Centennial honors three times.
Johns Hopkins has the most first-team All-CC selections in conference history with 184, followed by Muhlenberg with 173. Franklin & Marshall is third with 142, followed by Dickinson (121), Ursinus (90), McDaniel (89), Gettysburg (77), Susquehanna (39), Moravian (22) and Juniata (8).
