BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Campbell offensive lineman Campbell Tarpey has been named to the 2021 NFF Hampshire Honor Society, announced today by the National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame (NFF).

The list is comprised of college football players from all divisions of play who each maintained a cumulative 3.2 GPA or better throughout their college careers. An elite group of 910 players from 255 schools qualified for membership in 2021, the Society's 15th year. The initiative has now honored 13,077 student-athletes since its inception.

An Apex, N.C. native, Tarpey played in all four CU games of the year, helping push the Camels to 1378 yards of total offense, including 804 passing yards and 574 yards rushing against four FBS opponents. Missing two full seasons due to injury in his four year career, the trust and wealth management major (pre-law) also saw time on the field as a freshman in 2017.

Nominated by their respective schools, members of the NFF Hampshire Honor Society must:
- Have completed their final year of playing eligibility in Fall 2020 or Spring 2021.
- Graduated players, who have remaining eligibility but will not return to collegiate play (e.g. declared for NFL Draft or retired from football), may also be nominated.
- Attained a minimum undergraduate cumulative GPA of 3.2 (4.0 scale).
- Met all NCAA/NAIA-mandated progress towards degree requirements.
- Been starters or significant contributors throughout the 2020-21 season.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NCAA granted an extra year of eligibility to all 2020 fall athletes. Many seniors have decided to take advantage of this, and because they will return to the field in 2021, are not featured in this year's Hampshire Honor Society.
