Ashton Dulin '19 Selected to Great Midwest Athletic Conference Hall of Fame


The Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC) has announced the Hall of Fame Class of 2026. Two members are entering the G-MAC Hall of Fame, including Malone University football and track & field student-athlete Ashton Dulin.

During his standout football career at Malone, Ashton established himself as one of the most electrifying playmakers in NCAA Division II. He capped off a historic senior campaign in 2018 by earning G-MAC Offensive Player of the Year and Special Teams Player of the Year honors.
 
That season, Dulin started all 10 games and led the Pioneers in receptions (61), receiving yards (984), yards per catch (16.1), and receiving touchdowns (11). He was equally dangerous in the return game, totaling 836 kickoff return yards and leading all of NCAA Division II with three kickoff return touchdowns. His 1,947 all-purpose yards and 15 total touchdowns underscored his unmatched versatility, while his 194.7 all-purpose yards per game ranked second across all of Division II and led all wide receivers at any NCAA level.
 
Dulin recorded at least 100 all-purpose yards in every game of his senior season and scored a touchdown in eight contests, delivering explosive performances that included multiple three-touchdown games and a season-high 335 all-purpose yards against Alderson Broaddus University. His ability to impact the game in all three phases made him one of the most feared and respected players in the country.
 
Over the course of his career, Ashton rewrote the Malone record books, finishing as the program's all-time leader in receptions (189), receiving yards (3,188), all-purpose yards (5,455), and kickoff return touchdowns (3). He also ranks second in receiving touchdowns (28) and third in total touchdowns (34), cementing his place as one of the most accomplished players in school history.
 
Ashton was equally dominant in track and field. A multiple-time All-American, he excelled in hurdles, sprints, and jumps, earning G-MAC Track Athlete of the Year honors and setting conference and school records. His achievements included a top-five national finish in the 60-meter hurdles, conference titles across multiple events, and record-breaking performances in both indoor and outdoor competition.
 
Ashton's 
extraordinary athletic career propelled him to the professional level, where he earned an opportunity in the NFL and went on to continue his football journey with the Indianapolis Colts.

Congratulations to Ashton on this accomplishment--we are excited to watch as his career continues with the Indianapolis Colts!
