Trevor Meyer

Star of the Gridiron

Senior football center Trevor Meyer ’17 (West Harrison, Ind./East Central) was named to the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) All-America Football Team.

Meyer was a first-team selection by the coaches association. The AFCA All-American teams are limited to just 50 elite players in the nation selected by member coaches and each school may have one selection on the first or second team.

Meyer helped anchor the offensive line that blocked the way for the Saints to secure their eighth PAC title in 2016 and earned the conference’s automatic qualifying bid to the NCAA Division III Championship with an unblemished 8-0 league mark.
