HUNTINGTON – Deandre Reaves will walk through Winter Commencement at Marshall on Saturday, celebrating his graduation after finishing his course work in marketing prior to the 2015 football season.
As for that season, it was how the Herd redshirt senior ran through it that was really special.
On Wednesday, Reaves was named the 2015 Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Year – a first for Marshall in its 11 seasons in the league. A day earlier, the 5-foot-10, 179-pound Reaves was named an All-C-USA first team pick as kick returner and second team selection as punt returner.
