Muhlenberg sophomore tight end Ryan Curtiss was named to the D3football.com All-America third team.

Curtiss is the 12th different Mule named to the elite squad since D3football.com began selecting an All-America team in 1999. Muhlenberg has placed at least one player on the All-America team in six of the last eight years, and three of those selections have been tight ends. 

Three different Mule tight ends have earned All-America honors since 1999; out of more than 240 teams in Division III, only one (Ithaca) has had more tight ends recognized.

Curtiss, the lone Centennial Conference player named to the All-America team, made a big impact in his first season as a Mule, catching 39 passes for 509 yards and six touchdowns. His six TD catches tied for seventh in Division III among players listed as tight ends.

Curtiss, who tied a CC record for tight ends with 11 receptions vs. Johns Hopkins, also was named to the All-CC first team, the All-South Region first team and the All-ECAC first team. He was one of only seven sophomores honored on the D3football.com All-America first, second and third teams.
