Monday, 21 January 2013

Eastern Illinois University football wide receiver Erik Lora was named to the College Sporting News 2012 Fabulous Fifty FCS All-American Team.

Lora also earned first team honors this year from Sports Network, AFCA, Associated Press and Walter Camp. He set the FCS single season record for receptions this year making 136 catches for 1,664 yards.

Lora finished fourth in balloting for this year's Walter Payton Award after earning OVC Offensive Player of the year honors.

Thinking what a year for Lora? Well that's just the tip of the iceberg; he opened on the gridiron with seven straight 100 yard receiving games. That tied him for best FCS total since 2000.
