MARSHALL — Southwest Minnesota State University senior wide receiver Daniel Davis added another postseason award this week as he was honorable mention All-America by D2Football.com.

The D2Football.com All-America Team was selected by the staff of D2Football.com with input from coaches, scouts, media members and sports information directors from around the country. D2Football.com has named an All-America Team since its inception in 2000.

Davis is one of 10 wide receivers named to the first, second or honorable mention All-American squads.

A 5-foot-11, 175 pound native of Tarpon Springs, Fla., Davis was named Conference Commissioners Association (CCA) All-Region second team in early December and was a first team All-Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference in November. It’s the second time in Davis’ two-year SMSU career he has earned All-American accolades. He was named a 2018 third team All-American by Don Hansen Football Gazette.

Davis finished the 2019 campaign leading the NSIC in both receptions (104) and receiving yards (1,337) for the second straight season. A two-time first team All-NSIC South honoree, Davis finished the season with a team-leading 10 touchdowns, with his receptions total ranking third in SMSU single-season history, while his receiving yards is the fourth highest in team single-season history.

Davis finished the season with seven 100-yard receiving games and in the final Division II national statistics, he ranked first in receptions per game (9.5), third in receiving yards per game (121.5), sixth in receiving yards, 24th in receiving touchdowns and 36th in all-purpose yards per game (129.6).

Southwest Minnesota State finished the season with a record of 3-8.
