University of Arizona Bryce Wolma runs routes while working out with the tight ends on day 6 of their pre-season, Tucson, Ariz., August 1, 2019.

Arizona fifth-year tight end Bryce Wolma was named a semifinalist for the Campbell Trophy Wednesday morning.

The Campbell Trophy is awarded to the college football player with the best production in academics and community service, along with on-field performance.

Wolma is one of 176 players to become a semifinalist. He joins other nine Pac-12 members as semifinalists for the award, including Thomas Booker (Stanford), Nick Figueora (USC), Elijah Hicks (Cal), Adrezej Hughes-Murray (Oregon State), Matt Lynch (Colorado), Keegan Markgraf (Utah), Dru Mathis (Oregon), Shea Pitts (UCLA) and Race Porter (Washington).

The Campbell Trophy was first awarded in 1990, and since then, the Pac-12 has only produced two recipients of the prestigious award, Cal offensive lineman Alex Mack (2008) and Justin Herbert (2019).

In 2021, Wolma, who is one of Arizona's team captains this season and is co-president of Arizonaโ€™s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, has five catches for 36 yards and a touchdown. His score in Arizona's 41-19 loss to Oregon last week was his first since the season opener at Hawaii in 2019.
