Mohorcic's honor adds to a long list of accolades this season, most notably his spot on the 2017 Allstate® AFCA Good Works Team®. A political science major holding a 3.61 GPA, Mohorcic's academic highlights include his extensive involvement with APEX, Wooster's center for Advising, Planning, and Experiential Learning.
