The only other Ivy players to be recognized are Princeton defensive back TJ Floyd on the second team and Harvard running back Aaron Shampklin on the third team.
Dartmouth's opponent in the home opener, Colgate, had two players honored. Defensive lineman Nick Wheeler was selected to the first team and offensive lineman Jack Badovinac was chosen for the third team.
Green Alert Take: When Hero Sports names teams like this or tries to rank recruiting classes I often think of the Robert Browning line about a "man's reach should exceed his grasp." The Hero folks certainly haven't seen all of their preseason All-America picks and you know they are going on press clippings and internet "offers" when ranking recruits. They are taking on an impossible task but hey, at least they are trying.
