ST. LOUIS, Mo. – Thirty-Four student-athletes return from the Pioneer Football League’s 2019 All-PFL Teams and were named to the league’s Preseason All-PFL Watch List, Tuesday.
With six PFL teams competing for the Spring 2021 regular-season title, the league elected to name a Preseason All-PFL Watch List recognizing all returning student-athletes recognized on the 2019 All-PFL squads. Three First Team and six Second Team All-PFL selections return for the upcoming spring campaign. In addition, the watch list includes two Presbyterian student-athletes returning after earning All-Big South honors in 2019.
The upcoming Spring 2021 season marks the 28th year for the Pioneer Football League – the nation’s only non-scholarship, football-only NCAA Football Championship Subdivision conference. The PFL’s six-week schedule will see seven league members and Presbyterian, which joins the PFL as part of a scheduling agreement for the spring 2021 schedule, each playing three home and three away contests. Individual members may schedule nonconference games prior to the league’s March 13-April 17 window.
The Division I Football Championship will feature 16 teams, with the bracket announced Sunday, April 18, and the championship game, May 16 in Frisco, Texas. The spring 2021 field includes automatic bids from 11 FCS conferences, including the PFL, and five at-large selections.
