Carroll Countyās own Zayn Satchwell went to Florida on an invitation to play in a Senior Bowl and returned home with an MVP award.
Zayn was named Offensive MVP for Team Purpose in the Elevated Mission All American Senior Bowl.
āIt was real fun,ā he said with a smile. Zayn noted he was excited to meet college and NFL recruiters as well as players from all over the country.
