The Indoor Football League (IFL) is proud to announce the winners of the 2015 Individual Awards

Most Valuable Player: Jameel Sewell (QB, Nebraska Danger)

Nebraska Danger QB Jameel Sewell (6'3, 220lbs., Virginia) is the 2015 IFL Most Valuable Player. This is Sewell's second MVP award having also been named MVP following the 2013 IFL season. Sewell joins IFL Hall of Fame QB Chris Dixon as the only players in IFL history to have earned multiple League MVP awards.

Sewell led the Danger to a 10-4 record during the regular season, 7-0 at home, and the #1 seed in the Intense Conference. Under Sewell's steady guidance, the Danger have advanced to their third consecutive United Bowl. During the 2015 season, the dual-threat signal caller ranked at or near the top of every passing and rushing category. Sewell finished the regular season throwing for 1,739 yards and 38 TDs against just three interceptions. Sewell's 38 TD passes ranked third in the IFL while his three interceptions were the fewest of any QB in the IFL. Sewell continued to prove that he can be equally as dangerous on the ground, finishing second in the IFL in rushing yards (525) and rushing touchdowns (20). His 4.9 yards per carry led the IFL.

Sewell will look to add a United Bowl Championship to his resume next Saturday, July 11th, as he and the Nebraska Danger take on four-time defending United Bowl Champions, the Sioux Falls Storm.

Coach of the Year: Kurtiss Riggs (Sioux Falls Storm)

Sioux Falls Storm Head Coach Kurtiss Riggs is the 2015 IFL Coach of the Year. The most accomplished head coach in the history of the IFL, Riggs guided the Storm to a perfect 14-0 regular season in 2015 and the team's sixth consecutive berth in the United Bowl.

En route to the #1 seed in the United Conference, the Storm had the #1 ranked offense in the IFL, leading the league in points per game (63.1), yards per game (272.2), and rushing yards per game (124.6). Defensively, the Storm pride themselves on stifling opposing offenses, and this season was no different. The Storm led the league in points allowed per game (34.4), interceptions (23) and defensive touchdowns (11).

Under Riggs' tutelage, the Storm had eight players named to the All-IFL teams in 2015 including; OL Myniya Smith, OL Charlie Sanders, WR Judd Harrold, DL Cory Johnsen, DB Dequan Starling DB Elijah Fields, LB Tyler Knight and OL Rashaud Mungro.

During the 2015 season, Whitehead led the IFL in receiving yards (1,032) and receptions (81). He also added 17 TD receptions, ranking second in the IFL.

Price (6'2, 255lbs., Oklahoma State) set the tone for the Titans defense all season starting in Week One, where he recorded four sacks. He would finish the season leading the league with 12.5 sacks. In addition, he registered 64 tackles, 24 for loss, which lead the IFL. Price also led the league with four forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries.

Kalokoh and Danger RB Waymon James are the only players to be named both Offensive Player of the Week (Week 4) and Special Teams Player of the Week (Week 5) during the 2015 season.

Offensive Rookie of the Year: Waymon James (RB, Nebraska Danger)

Nebraska Danger RB Waymon James is the 2015 IFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. James (5'8, 205lbs., TCU) quickly emerged as one of the most explosive playmakers in the IFL.

James' versatility was on full display during the Danger's 86-43 Intense Conference Championship victory over the Tri-Cities Fever. James reached the end zone in three different ways; rushing, receiving, and he also returned a kick for a TD. The Danger will hope for a similar effort in next week's United Bowl.

Defensive Rookie of the Year: Michael Green (DB, Billings Wolves)

Billings Wolves DB Michael Green (5'11, 200lbs., Lenoir-Rhyne) is the 2015 IFL Defensive Rookie of the Year.

He concluded the 2015 season with 114 tackles (2nd in the IFL), 2 sacks, 4 forced fumbles, 2 fumble recoveries, and 159 interception return yards (1st in IFL).
