TULSA, Okla. (AP) University of Tulsa quarterback Paul Smith is one of 11 finalists for this year's Wuerffel Trophy.

The award is given each year to a player who combines athletic achievement with academic success and community service. It's named for former Florida quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Danny Wuerffel.
