NEW HAVEN, CT – Three-time selection Mark LeGree (Appalachian State) headlines the Walter Camp Football Foundation 2010 Football Championship Subdivision All-America team. The team was selected by the head coaches and sports information directors of the Football Championship Subdivision schools and certified by the accounting and auditing firm, Marcum LLP.

On offense, lineman Ben Ijalana (Villanova) is a repeat All-American selection. Ijalena has been a key part of a Wildcats’ rushing attack ranks in the top five in the nation. Placekicker Matt Bevins (Liberty) is also a repeat selection to the team. Bevins connected on 20-of-26 field goals and all 45 of his point-after kicks in 2010.

# - 2008 and 2009 Walter Camp All-America selection

Walter Camp, "The Father of American football," first selected an All-America team in 1889. Camp — a former Yale University athlete and football coach — is also credited with developing play from scrimmage, set plays, the numerical assessment of goals and tries and the restriction of play to eleven men per side. The Walter Camp Football Foundation — a New Haven based all volunteer group — was founded in 1967 to perpetuate the ideals of Camp and to continue the tradition of selecting annually an All America team.
