JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – Current Knoxville West social studies teacher and former Carson-Newman center Kevin Day (Soddy-Daisy, Tenn.) has landed on the d2football.com honorable mention All-American team.
The award is Day's fourth All-American honor this season. He becomes the 10th Eagle to make four All-American teams in a single year. It's the third year out of four that Carson-Newman has placed a player on the d2football.com squad.
Should Day make the Don Hansen All-America team, he would become the seventh consensus All-American in Carson-Newman's Division II history.
Day joins Philadelphia Eagle Leonard Weaver (2002), former Washington Redskin and Houston Texan Cedric Killings (1999) and current Carson-Newman defensive coordinator Mike Clowney in the four-timers club.
Day helped clear the way for the nation's top rushing offense in Division II. The Eagles piled up nearly 380 yards a game while scoring 52 rushing touchdowns. The 52 scores on the ground are the most among all schools in all divisions. Only FCS' Georgia Southern averaged more yards rushing a game than C-N.
