SYRACUSE, N.Y. – On the strength of last year's 10-3 campaign, preseason honors for members of the 2019 Orange football team continue to pour in.
Placekicker Andre Szmyt and safety Andre Cisco have picked up first-team preseason All-America honors from Lindy's and Phil Steele. Additionally, the Orange are well represented on the preseason all-conference teams of both outlets with 10 combined players earning recognition.
Szmyt's awards completed a sweep. The former walk-on is a projected first-team All-American by all four major preseason selectors (Athlon, Street & Smith's, Lindy's and Phil Steele).
