FORT COLLINS, Colo. - Three Rams - Trey McBride, Scott Patchan, and Ryan Stonehouse - were named to Phil Steele's All-American squad while seven other added all-conference recognition, the magazine announced following the 2021 season.

Patchan capped his collegiate campaign with a dominant 2021 season and became the first Colorado State defensive lineman in Mountain West history to earn first-team honors twice in his career. The Tampa, Fla., native enjoyed two highly successful season with the Rams. In 2021, Patchan tallied 18.5 tackles for loss and 10.5 sacks, good for sixth all-time in a season in program history.

Patchan's sack totals also ranked inside the top-15 nationally.

McBride and Patchan both added first team all-conference honors by the publication.

Stonehouse earned second team honors after concluding the best career by a punter in FBS history. His 47.8 yards per punt average over his career set an NCAA FBS record for career punt average, and his 50.9 average in 2021 was the best of his career and a Colorado State program record. He also added second team all-conference honors.

Long snapper Ross Reiter was named the league's top snapper by the outlet. The league's official team does not include a snapper. Reiter was named a preseason All-American by Rubio Long Snapping as well as a semifinalist for the Patrick Mannelly Award given to the nation's top snapper.
