BALTIMORE, Md. – Oregon State redshirt junior quarterback Chance Nolan has been named to the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award preseason watch list. The honor is given annually to the nation's top senior or upperclassman quarterback.
 
Nolan, a Menifee, Calif., native, has played in 17 career games for the Beavers, throwing for 3,214 yards and 25 touchdowns. He's completed 250-of-409 (61.1 percent) passes attempted during his Oregon State career.
