Sorry, did not mean to duplicate your post. At the time I wrote mine the only line in your post was the Wilson line. I have noticed that people can read a post seemingly as it is being written because later there are more sentences in it than were read initially.

Congratulations to Missy Cundiff for earning CAA Swimming Women's Co-Swimmer of the Week!

The CAA finally passed out some Cross Country awards:

Congratulations to Forest Braden for earning CAA Men's Cross Country Coach of the Year!

Congrats to Jacob Jones, Andrew Lagattuta, Tyler Lipps, Patrick North, Sam Pritchard, and Spencer Tsai on the Men's Team!

Congrats to Kyra Holland on the Women's Team!

Not a CAA award...but the Richmond Touchdown Club has honored Nate Lynn as the Virginia Defensive Lineman of the Year! The awards ceremony will even be on local TV in Richmond. Details here:

Lynn is a beast

Congrats to Nate Lynn who finished 9th in the voting for the Buck Buchanan award (FCS award for best defensive player).

Pretty good for a junior from a non-playoff team on a not-recently-relevant team that many voters may know little about.

12 sacks get you into the conversation though. Remember too that he's a down lineman with these stats. Pius was getting a running start from a two point stance on his edge rushes.

Yes, as I said, pretty good. I know we all expect him to be higher in the voting next year...if he doesn't outright win it.

That Villanova linebacker finished one spot higher in the voting...but W&M handled him.

Congratulations to Nate Lynn for being named a First Team FCS All-America by the Associated Press!

Nate was also named Second Team All-America by Hero Sports!

Julian Lewis - rookie of the week
