Three Huskers Earn Academic All-District Honors

Three Nebraska defensive players were honored on Thursday as members of the CoSIDA Academic All-District 7 football team. Junior linebacker Chris Weber earned the honor for the second consecutive year, while sophomore defensive tackle Mick Stoltenberg and senior defensive tackle Logan Rath were each honored for the first time.

With their selections to the Academic All-District 7 team, each of the three players advances to the national ballot for the CoSIDA Academic All-America team.

Weber carries a 3.96 cumulative grade-point average in nutrition science and is a key member of the Huskers’ special teams and defense. Weber has eight tackles this season after registering 49 stops as a sophomore in 2015.
