JACKSON, MS- Eleven Millsaps Majors have been named 2014 pre-season All-Americans by the USA College Football Network (CFN). 

The CFN sits on the voting panel for the Gagliardi Trophy (D-III Heisman). They also oversee the Division-III positional awards, including the Sean Brewer Award .

Of the 11 Majors who received the All-American honor, running back Mike Barthelemy, defensive end Zach Bell and safety Alex Jackson were named to the first team. Barthelemy was the SAA Offensive Player of the Year after rushing for 1400 yards and 21 touchdowns last season. Bell was the SAA Defensive Player of the Year after a 12 sack season that was top-10 in all of Division-III. Jackson was a first team All-SAA safety and led the Majors in tackles in 2013. 

The second team saw a pair of linemen get named as offensive lineman David Carter and defensive lineman Jeff Milner received the honor. Carter paved the way for the Majors to rush for 27 touchdowns last season. Milner joined Bell in wreaking havoc on backfields as he finished with 8.5 sacks in 2013. 

Tight end Matt Wahl, offensive lineman John Hartmangruber, kicker Beau Brady and defensive backs Semmes White and Jorrick Battle were named to the third team. Wide receiver Trevor King was named an honorable mention. 

The two-time SAA champion Majors are receiving top-25 nods from several publications. Millsaps will welcome in Mary-Hardin Baylor, a top team in their own right, on September 6th in the Majors 2014 opener.
