Wofford's Brown Earns Postgraduate Scholarship

Former Wofford College placekicker Darren Brown has received a $5,000 postgraduate scholarship from the Carolina Panthers Scholarship Fund, a component fund of Foundation For The Carolinas.

A Dean's List student, Brown graduated earlier this month with a degree in computer science. He has narrowed his choice of law school to either Duke or the University of Texas. He scored in the 90th percentile on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT).

Brown was a first-team All-Southern Conference selection this year. He holds Wofford's career field-goal accuracy record at 77.8 percent (21-of-27). As a junior, he set a single-season SoCon mark at 85.7 percent (12-of-14).

Brown is the third Wofford football player to receive a postgraduate scholarship through the Carolina Panthers and the Foundation For The Carolinas. Tight end Scot Jones was a 1998 recipient with offensive guard Eric Cole garnering the award in 1999.
