Fresno State gets 10 on Athlon’s Pre-Season Team

Athlon Sports brought out their Pre-Season All-MWC Team on Thursday, and Fresno State got 10 players on the list to match their 10 wins last year. They got 4 players on the First Team, including at all 3 skill positions. They continued on with 2 more on the Second, Third, and Fourth Teams. Boise State led the way with 15 selections, followed by SDSU (13), USU (12), and Air Force at 11.

The First Team offense is led by senior QB Jake Haener, fresh off Fresno’s first 4,000yd season since Derek Carr was throwing to Davante Adams. The gunslinger has been named to numerous award watchlists so far, and should be a strong contender for Conference Player of the Year.
