Jefferson Earns Second Freshman All-America Honor

CORVALLIS, Ore. – Jermar Jefferson has picked up his second Freshman All-America award.

The Harbor City, Calif., native was named to the 247Sports.com True Freshman All-America team on Monday. It's his third honor since the end of the 2018 season; he was also named the Pac-12 Freshman Offensive Player of the Year and a Freshman All-American by The Athletic last week.
