Ives named to academic all-district team
Linebacker Danny Ives ’16, an elementary and special education major, has been named to the College Sports Information Directors of America’s academic all-district team.
Ives led the Seahawks in tackles in back-to-back seasons (2013 and 2014). He totaled 87 tackles with 54 solo tackles last season and 100 tackles with 60 solo tackles in 2013. Ives was named to the academic all-conference team in 2013 and 2014 and is also a two-time all-NEFC linebacker. He currently ranks fifth in program history with 252 tackles.
“Danny is a full time student, where I am sure he is doing exceptional this semester, a full time student teacher, where his students like him so much that they come to our games to cheer him on, and an outstanding football player, where he leads the team in tackles,” said head coach Kevin Gilmartin. “But all that doesn’t compare to the all around great person that he is. He deserves this award and every other accolade he will receive.”
