Nov. 09– Senior captain Brad Scherer took home high honors as he was named to the CoSIDA ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District V First Team. Scherer earns the honor for the second consecutive season as he was a second team selection in 2005.

Scherer, a linebacker from St. Anthony, Minn., is a Business major at Concordia and holds a 3.94 grade point average. On the season, Scherer has recorded a team-best 89 tackles, which is tied for fourth in the Northern Sun.

The Academic All-District Teams program honors male and female student-athletes annually who have succeeded at the highest level on the playing field and in the classroom. 

Individuals are selected through voting by CoSIDA, the College Sports Information Directors of America; a 2,000-member organization consisted of sports public relations professionals for colleges and universities in the United States and Canada.

Scherer will now be considered on the National ballot for Academic all-America honors.
