MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. – Winston-Salem State University senior running back Kerrion Moore has accepted an invitation to participate in the 2018 D1 FCS Senior Scout Bowl. The bowl will serve as a showcase for Moore and around 80 other participants in the game.

Moore was selected after a rigorous selection process that sought out top talent available. The FCS Senior Scout Bowl will provide a tremendous opportunity for invitees as an average of 11 or more pro scouts attend the three-day event. The FreeAgentFootball.com Selection Committee chooses invitees to this bowl after undergoing a rigorous 18-month-long scouting process. In past years, the event has provided a great showcase for participants as 61 percent sign some sort of pro contract (CFL. Arena, Europe) and 18 percent signing NFL contracts.

It was a terrific career that earned Moore’s invitation to the bowl game. In 2018, he really stepped up with a tremendous season. He led the Rams’ rushing attack for the third straight season with 848 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in just nine games. For his efforts, he earned his third straight selection to the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) All-Conference team. For his career, Moore has compiled 3,072 career rushing yards with 36 touchdowns. He ranks seventh in school history in total rushing yards and in rushing touchdowns.

The D1-FCS Senior Scout Bowl was created in 2010 following the success of the DIII Senior Classic in 2009 that provided a showcase for athletes in front of pro scouts who attend the three-day event. The FAF D1-FCS Senior Scout Bowl is the fifth in a five-game bowl series called the FAF International Scouting Showcase (ISS). The game garners the most attention and popularity in the series due to the caliber of athletes it attracts.

The 2018 D1-FCS Senior Scout Bowl will take place on Saturday, Dec. 15, at Doug Shaw Memorial Stadium in North Myrtle Beach, S.C. For more information on the 2018 D1-FCS Senior Scout Bowl, go to www.fafiss.com.
