CEASER, JOHNSON EARN ALL-REGION HONORS
January 20, 2010
Contact: Brian Ramsey, Sports Information Director


PITTSBURG, Kan. –
University of Arkansas at Monticello junior football players Jywin Ceaser and Carlton Johnson have been selected to the 2009 Don Hansen’s Football Gazette All-Super Region Two squads.
 
Ceaser was named to the All-Super Region Two Second Team, while Johnson earned third team honors. Both earned honors at the Gulf South Conference level as well. Ceaser earned All-GSC second team honors as a receiver and Johnson was an All-GSC first team linebacker. All first and second team selections are eligible for all-America honors, so Ceaser has a chance to become UAM’s first all-America selection in football since 2004.
 
For Ceaser (Marrero, La.), the awards continue to accumulate. On January 6, the Little Rock Touchdown Club chose to honor Ceaser as the most valuable player for UAM in the 2009 season. The LRTDC will honor Ceaser and each MVP from all other Arkansas institutions at its 6th Annual Awards Banquet on February 15.
 
Ceaser finished the 2009 season ranked sixth in the GSC in receptions per game (6.10), fourth in receiving yards per game (88.5) and 10th in all-purpose yards per game (93.7). Overall, he caught 61 passes for 885 receiving yards with five touchdowns catches. He became just the second receiver in the Gwaine Mathews era as head coach (2005-present) to record more than 800 receiving yards in a single season.
 
Johnson (Panama City, Fla.) had an impressive junior campaign, racking up a team-high 81 tackles (42 solo), including 3.5 tackles for a loss of a combined 21 yards. Of those tackles for a loss, he picked up 2.5 sacks for a loss of 18 yards. He also recorded five pass deflections, one quarterback hurry and forced one fumble. He finished the season ranked seventh among all GSC players in total tackles.
 
The Gulf South Conference was well represented with almost 41 percent (38 players) of the 93 players selected to the three teams combined.
