Standouts include a number of players from defending champion South Dakota State, including quarterback Mark Gronowski, offensive lineman Gus Miller and Evan Beernsten and multiple defenders. In fact, the Dakota schools and Montana schools are very well-represented, making up 32 players over the four teams on offense, defense and special teams.
Marcus Yarns, Delaware's star running back, takes the second RB spot on the first team offense behind UC Davis' Lan Larison. Richmond's Nick DeGennaro takes the top wide receiver spot on the first-team offense. Despite the lists being made up overwhelmingly of seniors and graduate students, Western Carolina's Cole Gonzales was named the third-team quarterback.
