Horn named Preseason All-American for second consecutive season
CHICAGO – Senior safety Evan Horn (Lebanon, Pa.) of the University of New Hampshire football team was named to the STATS Perform FCS Preseason All-America Third Team for the second straight season.
Last week, Horn was selected to the 2021 CAA Football Preseason All-Conference Team on Tuesday.
The 6-foot, 220-pound safety enters the season as UNH's active leader in career tackles (174), interceptions (11), and sacks (7.0), as well as punt return yards (165). Horn has 23 consecutive starts and 30 career starts overall.
In New Hampshire's only game of the Spring 2021 season, he recorded four tackles and a pass breakup vs. UAlbany.
Horn was voted to the CAA All-Conference Second Team as a junior in the 2019 season, when he led UNH in both solo tackles (51) and total tackles (70), as well as interceptions (four). He also ranked third in pass breakups (five), tied for second in sacks (four) and tied for fourth in tackles for loss (seven); his other stats included two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
Horn was named a Hero Sports FCS Sophomore All-American in 2018. He recorded 28 solo tackles and 19 assisted tackles for a total of 57. He had four interceptions with 80 return yards and a pair of touchdowns.
All 15 FCS conferences and 60 schools are represented among the 120 All-Americans, who are split into three 40-player teams. Over 80 percent of the players earned a spot on a previous Stats Perform preseason or postseason All-America squad.
The Wildcats open their 2021 fall season on Thursday, September 2nd at Stony Brook. Game time from LaValle Stadium is 6 p.m.
