PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Brown senior quarterback EJ Perry has accepted an invitation to play in the annual 2022 East-West Shrine Bowl, as announced on Friday. The East-West Shrine Bowl is America's longest-running college football all-star game, which supports Shriners Children's® and will be played on February 3, 2022 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas as part of NFL Pro Bowl Week.
The honor is the latest in a long line of accolades for Perry this season. Earlier this week, he was named a finalist for the Bushnell Cup, which is awarded annually to the Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year in the Ivy League. He has also been tabbed a finalist for the 2021 Walter Payton Award, which is presented to the top offensive player in FCS Football.
Perry was named All-New England by the New England Football Writers Association and First Team All-Ivy for the second straight year after leading the league in seven different categories including total offense (343.5), completions per game (29.5), touchdown passes (23), passing yards (3,033), passing yards per game (303.3), points responsible for (188), and points responsible for per game (18.8). He ranked in the top nine in all of FCS Football in six different categories, including third in completions per game, seventh in completion percentage (.664), eighth in passing yards per game and total offense, and ninth in points responsible for and points responsible for per game.
Perry climbed up the ladder in both the Brown and Ivy League record books, finishing the year second all-time at Brown for single-season pass completions (295) and total offense (3,435), third in completion percentage (.664) and fifth in passing yards (3,033). His 295 pass completions this season were the second-most in Ivy League history, just 14 behind head coach James Perry's Ivy League record total from 1999. His 3,435 total yards of offense was also third-most in any season in Ivy League history, giving him two of the top three spots on the total offense list in league history.
