GEIR GUDMUNDSEN ON SPORTS NETWORK MID-MAJOR ALL-AMERICA FOOTBALL TEAM

     Philadelphia, Pa. ? University at Albany's Geir Gudmundsen has been voted to The Sports Network Division I-AA Mid-Major All-America Football Team. Gudmundsen, a 6-foot-6, 315-pound left tackle, was chosen to the 27-player squad by a panel of I-AA media and sports information directors.

     Gudmundsen, a first-team All-Northeast Conference selection for the third straight year, makes his second consecutive appearance on The Sports Network All-America squad. The Great Danes rank seventh among the national leaders in rushing at 254.7 yards per game, and have led the NEC in that category for six straight seasons. UAlbany ran for 345 or more yards in four games, while quarterback Nicholas Bazan became the sixth player in school history to rush for 1,000-plus yards.

     Gudmundsen, who made 44 consecutive starts on UAlbany's offensive line as a collegian, was one of four captains on this year's team. During his career, the Great Danes captured a pair of NEC championships and combined for 26 victories.
