NEW ORLEANS — UTSA running back Sincere McCormick was named to the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) Shaun Alexander Freshman All-America Team presented by Stand Together, the organization announced Monday.
McCormick, the 2019 Conference USA Freshman of the Year, is the third Roadrunner in the past four seasons to earn Freshman All-America accolades, joining linebacker Josiah Tauaefa (2016 FWAA) and place-kicker Jared Sackett (2017 USA TODAY).
A product of Converse Judson High School, McCormick stepped into the starting tailback role as a true freshman and broke a pair of UTSA records. He took down the single-season all-purpose yardage record with 1,177, topping the previous record of 1,121 set by Jarveon Williams in 2016. He also eclipsed Williams’ single-game rushing yardage mark with 189, including a 51-yard touchdown dash, on 22 carries in the Oct. 5 win at UTEP.
