Junior linebacker Osband Thompson earned his fifth All-America nod this weekend, as he was named to the Associated Press (AP) Little All-America Team, a team that is comprised of players from NCAA Division II, Division III and NAIA.

The junior not only has been named to five different All-America teams, but he has been selected as the SIAC Defensive Player of the Year and the D2CCA Super Region 2 Defensive Player of the Year this season for his performance in helping Tuskegee to the second round of the playoffs. Earlier last week, Thompson was one of 81 players named as a finalist for the Cliff Harris Award, given annually to the best defensive player among NCAA Division II, Division III and NAIA student-athletes.
