Methodist Athletics Hall of Fame
The first football inductee into the Methodist Athletic Hall of Fame, DeCarlos West '98 is among the best offensive players to ever don a Monarch uniform. A four-year starter at tailback, West -- at the time of his induction -- held the single-season and career records for rushing yards, the single-season and career records for rushing touchdowns, and the single-game record for rushing touchdowns. He is the only player to lead the team in scoring each of his four years, and was the first player, and one of only two in program history, to lead the team in rushing yards three times. West, a two-time preseason All-American, helped lead the 1997 Monarchs to a program-best 9-1 season with a final ranking of 20th in Division III.
