Streveler is the first Coyote to earn MVFC Offensive Player of the Year honors. Taylor is the first Western Illinois studentathlete to win the Defensive Player of the Year award since 2010 (LB Kyle Glazier). In addition to Taylor and Glazier, two other Leathernecks have won the league's top defensive honor including James Milton (1998) and Edgerton Hartwell (1999, 2000). Cox is the first North Dakota State student-athlete to win the league's Newcomer of the Year award and also the Bison's first Freshman of the Year winner. Cox is the third in league history to sweep both honors, joining QB Sawyer Kollmorgen of UNI (2012) and RB Martin Ruiz of Youngstown State (2013).
