Zaven Collins Gets Another All-America First Team Honor; This Time by the AFCA

DALLAS, Texas –– The University of Tulsa linebacker Zaven Collins was named to the 2020 American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) All-America first team, it was announced today by the AFCA.

The AFCA has selected an All-America team since 1945 and currently selects teams in all five of its divisions. What makes these teams so special is that they are the only ones chosen exclusively by the men who know the players the best — the coaches themselves.

Collins has been named to nearly every first-team All-America team announced thus far this season, including the Associated Press, FWAA, Sporting News, USA Today, CBS Sports, Pro Football Focus and The Athletic.
