BOISE, Idaho – Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty was named a semifinalist for the 95th AAU Sullivan Award. The award is presented annually to the nation's best athlete at the Olympic, Collegiate, or similar elite level.

Jeanty's historic 2024 campaign featured 2,601 rushing yards, the second-most in FBS single-season history. He set College Football Playoff-era records for yards after contact (1,970) and missed tackles forced (164) while becoming the only player in FBS history to rush for 100+ yards in 14 games in a season.

The captain led the Broncos to a second-consecutive Mountain West title, earning MW Offensive Player of the Year. He became the first unanimous All-American in program history and won the Doak Walker and Maxwell Awards while finishing second in Heisman Trophy voting.

Voting for the AAU Sullivan Award is open now and will remain open until Tuesday, Feb. 25 at 9:59 p.m. MT. Fans can vote for Jeanty HERE. The winner of the award will be determined through a second voting period with the finalists in mid-March. The ceremony announcing the winner will be held at the New York Athletic Club, April 15.
