Cal Adomitis becomes first NCAA-recognized All-American long snapper

Pitt long snapper Cal Adomitis was named a first-team All-American by the American Football Coaches Association on Wednesday, and with the honor, he became the first NCAA-recognized All-American long snapper.

The AFCA added the long snapper position to its All-America team this year, becoming the first of the five outlets recognized by the NCAA to make that addition. As a result, Adomitis made history as the first college long snapper to be honored as an All-American. Adomitis also helped the 2021 Pitt team achieve a rare feat, as it became the first Pitt team since 1982 to feature three first-team All-Americans.
