Boggs Named Military Bowl STEM Scholar-Athlete

DURHAM, N.C. –  Redshirt sophomore tight end Tony Boggs was one of 32 members to be selected to the fifth annual Go Bowling Military Bowl STEM Scholar-Athlete Program, as announced by the organization Monday afternoon.
The program recognizes some of the brightest minds competing on the gridiron in the Atlantic Coast Conference and the American Athletic Conference.
Boggs holds a 3.243 grade-point average and earned a spot on the All-ACC Academic Team in 2024. The Wartrace, Tenn., native is majoring in art history with an architecture concentration and an architectural engineering certificate. In the classroom, Boggs is developing a deep understanding of design principles, historical context and the aesthetic aspects of construction. Simultaneously, his architectural engineering certificate is providing the critical technical and mathematical foundation necessary for the structural integrity and material science of building. Boggs plans to further refine these skills by pursuing a master's degree in design and business. His goal is to lead projects that are not only structurally sound and financially viable but also aesthetically thoughtful and innovative.Â
On the field, Boggs is a returning tight end who transitioned from defensive tackle to offensive line during the spring of 2024 and then to tight end during the 2024 season. He has seen action in 16 career games and played 101 career snaps.
"We are excited to once again present the Go Bowling Military Bowl STEM Scholar-Athlete Program and celebrate the successes of these student-athletes on the field and in the classroom," Military Bowl Foundation President & Executive Director Steve Beck said. "Along with our partners at Fognigma, we congratulate these young men for their achievements and look forward to their continued success."
The Go Bowling Military Bowl STEM Scholar-Athlete Program presented by Fognigma honors one football player at each university that is a member of the ACC and the American Conference – the two conferences that are represented in the Go Bowling Military Bowl college football game. These players are studying STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) subjects and/or aspire to STEM careers.
The two players whose teams compete in the 2025 Go Bowling Military Bowl will be recognized at the game, which takes place on Saturday, Dec. 27 at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Md. Kickoff is at 11 a.m. ET and the game will be televised on ESPN. Bowl tickets are on sale now. A donation will be made by Fognigma in the name of these two players to their respective school's general scholarship fund.
The Military Bowl Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that operates premier events in the National Capital Region to benefit our nation's service members. Originally formed to create the region's first-ever college football postseason bowl game, the Foundation now not only runs the Go Bowling Military Bowl but additionally operates the DC Touchdown Club and Patriot Point, a retreat for recovering service members, their families and caregivers on Maryland's Eastern Shore. The Foundation hosts engaging events throughout the year to raise money and awareness for military service members, directly impacting those who give so much of themselves for the country.
