NJCAA Announces 2011 Football All-America Teams

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The NJCAA is proud to announce this year's 2011 NJCAA Football All-America teams. The 75 student-athletes awarded the honor this season were nominated by their respective conference and then selected by the NJCAA football committee. 

East Mississippi Community College quarterback Bo Wallace and Navarro College (Texas) wide receiver Marquez Clark highlight the First-Team offensive selections. Wallace led EMCC to the 2011 NJCAA Football Championship, which is the first in any sport for the rural school in Scooba, Miss. The freshman from Pulaski, Tenn., shattered NJCAA single-season records for touchdown passes (53), passing yards (4,604) and total offense (4,810). Clark, a sophomore from Texarkana, Texas, helped the Bulldogs clinch their second consecutive conference championship while setting new NJCAA records for single-season receptions (98) and receiving yards (1,639). 

Another record breaker highlights the First-Team defensive squad. Rochester Community & Technical College (Minn.) defensive back Caleb Leichtnam set a new NJCAA single-season record for interceptions with 20 picks, including two he returned for touchdowns. The freshman from Grand Medow, Minn., had two or more interceptions in seven contests, and three or more picks in three of those games.
