The Division III football season came to a thrilling conclusion last Friday as Mary Hardin-Baylor outlasted Mount Union to win its second title in three years. Unfortunately, we are without football until next fall, but that doesn’t mean we can’t keep looking back at standouts from the season that was. So with that in mind, it’s time for you to make your voice heard and vote for the best D3 special teams player of 2018.
MORE D3 FOOTBALL:

The poll is open until this Friday at 1 p.m. Eastern/10 a.m. Pacific Time, so make your selection today and feel free to share with friends on social media so they can place their vote as well. Don’t forget to see the winners for the D3 offensive player of the year, defensive player of the year and head coach of the year. You can also vote through Friday for the best freshman of the year.
