The Rockford University football team had six players earn postseason recognition from the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference on Friday morning when the NACC announced its 2016 All-Conference selections. Sophomore running back Chance Manning (Durand, Ill.) and Junior offensive lineman Alex Giannoni (Camden, Tenn.) headlined the group as both were named First Team All-NACC. Junior wide receiver Mar Sean Vercher (Chicago, Ill.) and Freshman defensive lineman Jacob Cremeens (Roscoe, Ill.) were each voted Second Team All-NACC. Sophomore offensive lineman Brandon Bothem (Roscoe, Ill.) and Sophomore defensive lineman Jared Johnson (Miami, Fla.) were both named NACC Honorable Mention to round out the Regents’ selections.

Defensive lineman Jacob Cremeens burst onto the scene garnering Second Team All-NACC honors as a Freshman. Cremeens finished in the top 12 in the conference in four major categories, three of which were also team-highs. He finished fourth in the NACC in sacks (5.5), seventh in tackles for loss (11.5), eleventh in solo tackles (37) and twelfth in total tackles (72). Cremeens also added a forced fumble and two pass breakups to round out his season stat line. Sophomore offensive lineman Brandon Bothem (Roscoe, Ill.) and Sophomore defensive lineman Jared Johnson (Miami, Fla.) were both named NACC Honorable Mention to round out the Regents’ selections.

Offensive lineman Brandon Bothem was the final Regent to be recognized by the conference, as he was named NACC Honorable Mention. Bothem was a member of an offensive line that allowed just 11 sacks all season and produced just the third 1,000-yard rusher in school history.  He was also an important part of a much improved offense that led the NACC in time of possession (33:26) and third down conversion percentage (43%), was third in red zone scoring (74%) and red zone touchdown percentage (72%) and fourth in rushing (1,424).

Rockford University is a four-year, co-educational institution founded in 1847 offering undergraduate and graduate degrees in traditional liberal arts and professional fields.
