LAKE CHARLES, LA – The awards keep mounting for McNeese linebacker Micah Davey when on Friday, he was named to the Walter Camp FCS All-America Team, and on Saturday, the 2023 LSWA All-Louisiana First Team along with offensive lineman Cole Leclair who was named to the second team.
Note: LSWA is the Louisiana Sports Writers Association All-Louisiana college football team.
Leclair, a junior from Middleburg, Florida who just wrapped up his second season with the Cowboys, started all 10 games and played 599 snaps on the season. He also earned All-SLC second-team honors on the year.
Leclair is a Middleburg High School graduate out of Middleburg, FL.
Davey's All-American honor marks the sixth of the season for the outgoing sophomore from Baton Rouge. He's already earned first-team honors by the AFCA and second-team by the AP, Sports Perform, Phil Steele and FCS Football Central.
A first-team All-Southland Conference selection and seventh-place finish in the voting for the Buck Buchanan Award as the top defensive player in the nation, Davey led the FCS in three different statistical categories in 2023 – total tackles (153), tackles per game (15.3) and solo tackles per game (8.3). His 15.3 per game average set a new McNeese record while his 153 total stops rank as the sixth-most in school history in a single season.
An outgoing sophomore from Baton Rouge, Davey recorded double-digits in tackles in all 10 games on the season and became the first player in school history to collect 20 or more tackles in back-to-back games (20 vs. HCU; 21 at Lamar). The 21 tackles at Lamar were the second-most in a game in school history and ninth-most in Southland history.
The team was voted on by an LSWA panel of football media along with the sports communications/media relations staff members of the state colleges and universities. The nominations were submitted by each school and the only voting restriction was that the football communications staff member voting could not vote for their nominees.
