CEDAR CITY, Utah, Dec. 14 – Southern Utah University wide receiver Tysson Poots has earned his second All-America honor of the year, as he was announced today as a member of the 26-member Walter Camp 2010 Football Championship Subdivision All-America Team.

The Walter Camp All-America teams are determined by voting among the nation's head coaches and sports information directors. Poots was named to the American Football Coaches Association's All-America squad last week.

Poots, a graduate student from Henderson, Nev. (Coronado HS), earned a spot on the team after catching 85 passes for 1,230 yards and 11 touchdowns. He finished the season ranked fourth in the nation in receptions and yards per game, the third consecutive year he has ranked among the nation's top-four in those categories.

Poots holds every single-season and career receiving record at Southern Utah and he finished his career ranked among the NCAA's career leaders as well.

He finished the 2010 season with 85 receptions for 1,230 yards and 11 TDs. The receptions tied his own school single-season record while the yards rank second at SUU, six short of his own record set in 2008. The touchdown receptions rank third in school history, behind his record 15 last year and his own 14 in 2008.

Poots finished his career with 285 receptions for 3,960 yards and 43 touchdowns. In NCAA FCS history his 99.0 career receiving yards per game rank sixth, his 285 receptions rank eighth, the 43 career TDs rank ninth and his 3,960 receiving yards rank 10th.

He is also the active NCAA career leader in receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns and receiving yards per game.

Poots is SUU's first Walter Camp All-American since quarterback Matt Cannon was named to the team in 2000. He is the only representative of the Great West Conference on the team.
