RECIPIENT OF THE JAMES J. CAMPBELL SCHOLAR-ATHLETE AWARD, ENDOWED BY WILLIAM V. CAMPBELL

The quintessential student-athlete, Tim Crawley puts his versatility to use on the field and in the classroom. His impressive resume makes him worthy of being San Jose State’s first-ever NFF National Scholar-Athlete.

A two-time Academic All-District selection, Crawley graduated magna cum laude in May as a business management information systems major with a 3.78 GPA. A three-time Academic All-Mountain West selection and Mountain West Scholar-Athlete, he is currently enrolled in the master's degree program in interdisciplinary studies. The three-time San Jose State Dean’s Scholar twice earned the Spartans’ Academic Achievement Award for football, and he was honored by the National Consortium for Athletics and Sports on 2015 National Student-Athlete Day. Crawley is a two-time Arthur Ashe Jr. Sports Scholar, and he was a national semifinalist for the 2016 Arthur Ashe Jr. Sports Scholar of the Year.  

A senior team captain, Crawley has served as a receiver, running back and kick returner for the Spartans. The Santa Clara, Calif., native led San Jose State to a victory in the 2015 AutoNation Cure Bowl. In his career, Crawley has recorded 130 receptions for 1,440 yards and 10 touchdowns while adding 422 rushing yards for five touchdowns. His versatility extends to special teams, where he has a career 20-yard kickoff return average after returning 36 for a total of 727 yards.

Crawley is active in the community, having twice hosted a child diagnosed with autism as part of the Autism Tree Foundation. He has volunteered for campus move-in day and Field Day, and he assisted with a Fellowship of Christian Athletes youth football camp. Crawley participated in a video tribute to military veterans that plays during Spartans games, and he was the team representative at the Cure Bowl to meet patients with cancer at a local hospital.

Crawley now serves as a quality and training lead for Google.
