Tulsa -

University of Tulsa center Trent Dupy is one of 42 players named to the 2011 watch list for the Rimington Trophy.

Dupy, a junior, has started 23 games at center for the Golden Hurricane, including all 13 games last season. He started ten games as a true freshman in 2009 and was named to the Conference USA all-Freshman team.

The Rimington Trophy is given yearly to the nation's top center. It's named after former Nebraska all-American Dave Rimington and is awarded by the Boomer Esiason Foundation, which is committed to finding a cure for cystic fibrosis.

More than 86-million dollars has been raised for research by the foundation, including two million from the Rimington Trophy, which is in its 12th year.

The winner of this year's award will be named during a banquet in January.
