Fantasy Underdog Tops Industry Giants in Back-To-Back Years

For second consecutive year, Mock Draft Central wins Fantasy Sports Trade Association award for best drafting software over finalists ESPN and CBS Sports.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, MARCH 11, 2009: In a Cinderella-story sequel, Mock Draft Central was again awarded multiple industry awards at the 2009 Fantasy Sports Trade Association Conference (FSTA: http://www.fsta.org) in Tampa, FL. After being voted Best Drafting Software at the 2008 FSTA Conference over finalist ESPN by fantasy sports industry members, Mock Draft Central once again stood tall against competitor CBS Sports in the Best Drafting Software category.

Mock Draft Central stood out as the only company to win multiple industry awards in consecutive years, also capturing Best Specialty Fantasy Site award at the 2008 FSTA Conference and garnering Best Draft Assistance Tool honors at the 2009 FSTA Convention.

Mock Draft Central president Jason Pliml had this to say after accepting the latest industry awards, "It is truly an honor to have all of our hard work recognized. It's refreshing to know that passion and innovation can win over outsized advertising budgets."
