Fuhrman named to All-FFC team

The Freedom Football Conference announced Monday that Kings Point junior linebacker Matt Fuhrman, a former Starr’s Mill player, has been named a first-team All-Conference selection.

A total of 10 players from the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy were chosen for All-Conference honors.

Fuhrman was a vital member of a Kings Point defense that sacked the quarterback 28 times and registered 78 tackles for loss. He registered 68 tackles (44 solo) and led the FFC by a wide margin with 16.5 tackles for loss and 10.0 sacks, while forcing three fumbles.

The U.S. Merchant Marine Academy went 6-4 this season under first-year head coach Tim McNulty, including a 3-3 mark in Freedom Football Conference play, which tied for a third-place finish. Included in the six victories was a 22-14 victory over NCAA Tournament-bound Muhlenberg College.
