With football season just a month away, the Grand Valley State University football team garnered preseason honors in the form of four Beyond Sports Network Preseason All Americans.
Led by a pair of seniors on the offensive side of the ball, tackle Tim Lelito and wide receiver Charles Johnson represent the Lakers on the first team, while junior defensive back Erik Thompson, the lone defensive player represented, is on the second team.
The man throwing passes to Johnson behind Lelito and the offensive line, junior quarterback Heath Parling, ended up on the third team.
Thompson, Lelito and Johnson also ended last season as members of the All-GLIAC First Team.
