Elic Cordell Ayomanor (; born c. 2003) is a Canadian gridiron football wide receiver for the Stanford Cardinal. He won the 2023 Jon Cornish Trophy as the top Canadian player in the NCAA and holds the Stanford record for receiving yards in a game.
Ayomanor was born in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada, and has family roots in Kincaid, Saskatchewan. He started his high school career at Medicine Hat High School, but then transferred to Peddie School in New Jersey for one year. He then finished his last two years of high school at Deerfield Academy in Deerfield, Massachusetts.[1] He was a star track athlete in high school, setting league records in the 100 (10.76) and 200 meters (21.66).[2] He also excelled in football for Deerfield and was rated as a top 10 recruit in Massachusetts.[1] He had scholarship offers from Stanford, Notre Dame, California, Tennessee, and Ole Miss.[3] [4]
Ayomanor enrolled at Stanford University in 2022. He did not appear in any games as a freshman due to injury.[1]
Against Colorado on October 13, 2023, Ayomanor caught 13 passes for a school-record 294 receiving yards. He led Stanford to a comeback victory after trailing, 29–0, tallying three touchdown receptions, including an overtime catch in which he pulled the ball over the helmet of Colorado's Travis Hunter.[5] [6] [7]
