College football is right around the corner so we will be flooded with preseason rankings, media days, and watchlists. Today is no different, with Texas A&M “Aggie Heart Award” recipient Max Wright being named to the Wuerffel Trophy preseason watchlist.
The Wufferfel Trophy is a service award that honors college football players for their hard work and dedication to serving others nationwide. Danny Wuerffel shares a little about what his foundation and award signify.
“We want to Inspire College Athletes to be community minded, to live for others, to sacrifice their own interests for the benefit of the community and other people.”
Max personifies exactly what the award is striving to convey when it comes to putting others above yourself.

The last Aggie to win the award was Grad transfer Trevor Knight in 2016, and we hope Max will bring home the honor in 2023. Even if he does not, his work will leave an impression on everyone he has helped along the way.
