KALAMAZOO, Mich. -- Western Michigan senior left tackle Chukwuma Okorafor added another postseason honor as he was named by the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) as First-Team All-American. Last week, Okorafor was named Walter Camp Second Team All-American.
The 6-6, 330-pound Okorafor has been a three-year starter for Western Michigan. Prior to this season he was named the No. 4 tackle to watch in the nation by Mel Kiper. Towards the end of the 2017 season he was named one of six semifinalists for the Outland Trophy. Okorafor is a two-time Mid-American Conference First Team selection.
