Westerkamp, Gates receive third-team all-conference honors

Jordan Westerkamp missed almost three full conference games to injury, but coaches in the league still respected the Husker senior wide receiver enough to name him third-team all-conference.

His sophomore teammate, left tackle Nick Gates, also received third-team honors by way of the media, as the Big Ten named its all-conference selections on offense on Wednesday night.

Westerkamp and Gates join senior safety Nate Gerry (second-team by media, third-team by coaches) as Huskers recognized on this year's all-Big Ten teams.

It's the second straight year Westerkamp received All-Big Ten honors. He was a unanimous second-team choice in 2015.
