QUILES SELECTED TO PLAY IN CACTUS BOWL

 

KUTZTOWN, Pa. - Kutztown University's Elfren Quiles (sr. New Britain,
Conn./New Britain) hasn't played his last collegiate game yet.

 

                The 6-foot-2 senior wideout will play in the seventh annual
Cactus Bowl in Kingsville, Texas, on Jan. 11. The East-West format contest -
Quiles will play on the East squad - is comprised entirely of seniors in
Division II.

 

                Quiles caught 64 passes for eight touchdowns and a
school-record 1,187 yards. His 118.7 yards per game average led the
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference and was second in Division II. He was
named to the PSAC East and Daktronics All-Northeast Region first teams.

 

                The Cactus Bowl assembles football players from more than
150 Division II schools and gives the players a great opportunity to
showcase their skills to NFL scouts. In the first seven years of the event,
when it was Snow Bowl in Fargo, N.D., more than 100 players moved on to sign
NFL contracts. In the inaugural Cactus Bowl in 2001, 25 players signed NFL
contracts.

 

                Quiles is one of eight PSAC players who were selected to
participate in the Cactus Bowl.

 

                The Cactus Bowl raises money for the Shriners Hospitals for
Children.
