Last night, head coach Trei Oliver was inducted into the Celebration Bowl Champions Circle at the 2023 Champions Circle Dinner in Atlanta, Georgia, to honor his team's victory in the 2022 Celebration Bowl Championship. Oliver's North Carolina Central University Eagles (10-2) football team defeated Deion Sanders and Jackson State University (12-1), 41-34, in an overtime thriller at the 2022 Celebration Bowl.

BOXTOROW media members voted NCCU as the 2022 HBCU Football National Champions following winning the game. Quarterback Davius Richard (2 touchdowns) and running back Latrell "Mookie" Collier ( 1 touchdown) were the Eagles' offensive leaders as they denied the Tigers' bid for an undefeated season. The MEAC Champions outrushed JSU 276 rushing yards to 78 rushing yards to claim the Celebration Bowl title.
