Marshall University’s football team put four of its members, including a pair of offensive linemen, on the preseason All-Conference USA team. The team, chosen by the league’s 13 head coaches, was announced Wednesday.
Michael Selby and Beckley native Clint Van Horn were the Thundering Herd offensive linemen who made the list. Selby has started every game the past two seasons for assistant coach Alex Mirabal’s offensive line, amassing 106 knockdowns. Van Horn, who was selected to the Outland Trophy Watch List for the second straight season earlier this month, is a two-time all-league honoree.
Tight end Ryan Yurachek and defensive lineman Gary Thompson also made the list.
