LEXINGTON, Ky. – The Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame announced its Kentucky Collegiate All-Commonwealth Team for the upcoming 2026 football season and five seniors from Centre College were selected to this year's squad.

This year's ACWT nominees from Centre are punter Will Boehm, nose tackle Carson Combs, defensive end Wyatt Fowler, return specialist Cree Ross and cornerback Brooks Sapone.

An All-SAA Second Team selection, Boehm picked up his second all-conference nod after having one of the best seasons by a punter in program history, finishing 11th in the country with a 41.5-yard average per punt. Boehm earned one SAA Special Teams Player of the Week honor, pinned 19 punts inside the opposing 20 and yielded a net of eight return yards all season long.

Combs earned his first All-SAA selection as a junior last year, drawing double teams and stuffing the run, helping the Centre defense surrender a net zero rushing yards in the final game of the season. He also iced a Homecoming victory over Southwestern with a fumble recovery on the final series.

Fowler was named All-SAA honorable mention for the second season in a row. The former defensive back led the Centre defense with 4.5 sacks during his junior season.

Ross was named a Third Team All-American and the SAA Special Teams Player of the Year after a breakthrough junior campaign. The track & field All-American led all of Division III with three kickoff return touchdowns, running back kicks for scores against Millsaps, Trinity and Sewanee. Ross was named SAA Special Teams Player of the Week twice during the season.

Centre's top cornerback for the last three seasons, Sapone missed most of his sophomore season with a broken hand, but was healthy all season as a junior and tied for the team lead with 43 total tackles while also finishing fourth in the conference with eight pass breakups.
