2024 CAA Football Postseason Awards Release (PDF)
RICHMOND, Va. (November 26, 2024) CAA Football announced the winners of its 2024 postseason awards on Tuesday, headlined by Monmouth senior quarterback Derek Robertson earning Offensive Player of the Year honors and New Hampshire's senior defensive end Josiah Silver selected as the conference's Defensive Player of the Year.
Other major award recipients included Stony Brooks Billy Cosch as CAA Coach of the Year, Elon senior wide receiver/kick returner Chandler Brayboy as Special Teams Player of the Year, Villanova freshman running back David Avit as Offensive Rookie of the Year and freshman safety at Richmond Matthew Traynor as Defensive Rookie of the Year. Elon junior safety Caleb Curtain was honored with the Chuck Boone Leadership and Excellence Award. CAA Football's all-conference awards are voted on by the league's head coaches.
Robertson turned in a record-setting season behind the wheel of Monmouth's high-powered offense. The senior completed 283 of 435 passes for a program record 3,937 yards while setting a new MU mark with 31 touchdowns. The 3,937 passing yards lead the nation and are 3rd-the most in CAA history, while the 31 TD ranks third in FCS. He threw for over 350 yards in seven games and had multiple TD throws in 10 games.
Silver capped an outstanding career with a stellar senior season. The defensive end ranked fifth in the country with 11.5 sacks and was 11e in FCS with 17.5 tackles for loss. He also contributed 58 tackles, four quarterback hurries and a forced fumble for a UNH defense that allowed just 287.5 yards and 17.5 points per game in CAA play. Silver is the all-time leader at UNH with 37.5.
Cosh was picked to finish last in the league's preseason poll and guided Stony Brook to an 8-4 overall record and a 5-3 mark in CAA play in his first year as head coach. The Seawolves recorded their most overall wins since 2017 and achieved their highest national ranking (16e) since 2018. Stony Brook posted the biggest turnaround in FCS football this season after going 0-10 in 2023.
Brayboy ranked second in the nation with an average of 35.3 yards on 16 kickoff returns, including touchdown returns of 94 and 93 yards in a win over UAlbany. The senior ranks fifth in FCS in all-purpose yardage (151.4 ypg) and is the leading receiver for the Phoenix with 59 catches for 979 yards and eight touchdowns.
Avit rushed for a team-high 793 yards and nine touchdowns and added nine receptions for 100 yards for Villanova. The freshman ranked ninth in the CAA in rushing and reached the 100-yard mark twice, highlighted by a 183-yard, four-touchdown performance against Stony Brook.
Traynor contributed 64 tackles, including a team-high 48 solo stops, for a Richmond defense that led the CAA and ranked 8the nationally in scoring defense (17.5 ppg). The freshman safety also contributed 4.5 tackles for loss, two interceptions and three pass breakups.
Curtain received the prestigious Chuck Boone Leadership and Excellence Award in 2024, an honor that embodies the highest standards of leadership, integrity, teamwork and sportsmanship in academia and athletics. The Elon safety earned first-team All-CAA honors after recording 75 tackles, two interceptions and nine pass breakups. Curtain has a 3.24 grade point average as a marketing major and holds leadership positions in several campus organizations.
