Junior quarterback Pete Scaffidi, junior tailback Al Mitchell, and senior guard Gilbert Munoz earned Second Team All-MWC honors on the offensive side of the ball and senior defensive lineman Casey Flynn received the honor on defense. Scaffidi has already set single-season team records with 223 completions, 2,702 passing yards, and 28 touchdown passes.
