Washburn Ichabod senior offensive lineman Kyle Hinton has been named a Second Team All-American by the American Football Coaches Association announced Tuesday morning.
Hinton was a first team all-MIAA selection and has been a four-year member of the Ichabods starting the last 34 games making 42 appearances on the offensive line. He has been a four-time all-MIAA selection on the offensive line earning all-region honors in 2018. He also caught his first reception of his career with an 8-yard touchdown pass on Saturday against Nebraska-Kearney in the Ichabods’ 57-41 win the season finale.
Hinton is the seventh Ichabod to be named to an AFCA All-American team. Dane Simoneau was a first team selection in 2011 and placekicker Steve Ivanisevic was selected in 2010. Linebacker and current assistant coach Zach Watkins was named in 2009. Washburn also had AFCA All-American selections in 2007 with defensive back Cary Williams, in 2006 with defensive tackle Trey Lewis and in 1988 with wide receiver Troy Slusser.
