South Dakota State University linebacker Christian Rozeboom and cornerback Jordan Brown were tabbed Tuesday as members of the STATS FCS Preseason All-America Team.
Â
A junior from Sioux Center, Iowa, Rozeboom was selected to the first team after posting his second consecutive 100-tackle season for the Jackrabbits in 2017. Rozeboom registered a team-high 127 tackles, including 7.5 tackles for loss, notching 10 or more tackles in seven of the team's 14 games. A two-time first-team all-Missouri Valley Football Conference selection, Rozeboom added three fumble recoveries and a pair of interceptions to earn a spot on multiple postseason All-America teams a year ago.
Â
Brown, a senior from Scottsdale, Arizona, earned third-team recognition on the preseason All-America squad. In earning first-team all-MVFC honors last season, he tallied team bests of nine pass breakups and three forced fumbles, while ranking second in both tackles (72) and interceptions (3).
Â
Overall, 98 players from 56 schools across all 13 Football Championship Subdivision conferences were honored on the STATS FCS Preseason All-America Team. Of the 98 players, 16 were from MVFC schools.
Â
SDSU kicks off the 2018 season Sept. 1 at Iowa State.
