WACO, Texas – Fort Hays State senior defensive end Sie Doe, Jr. has been named to the American Football Coaches Association All-America First Team for the 2016 season. Doe has already been tabbed the MIAA Defensive Player of the Year and the D2CCA Super Region 3 Defensive Player of the Year this season and adds another prestigious honor to his collection.
The AFCA has named Doe one of the top four defensive linemen in the nation. Two are from the MIAA as he joins Collin Bevins of Northwest Missouri State. Also named to the first team are Lucky Baar of McKendree (Ill.) and Dylan Donahue of West Georgia.
The AFCA’s Division II?All-America Selection Committee is made up of three head coaches from each of the AFCA’s seven districts, one of whom serves as a district chairman, along with another head coach who serves as the chairman of the selection committee. The coaches in each district are responsible for ranking the top players in their respective districts prior to a conference call between the district chairmen and the committee chairman on which the teams are chosen.
Doe completed the season with a new FHSU school record 15 sacks while adding 19.5 tackles for loss. He had 81 total tackles and tied for the NCAA lead in forced fumbles with five for the season. He also matched the FHSU career record of 21.5 sacks by Trevell Smittick.
Over two years at FHSU, Doe amassed 151 tackles, 34.5 tackles for loss, 21.5 sacks, and eight forced fumbles. He earned all-conference honors both years with the program.
