Missouri Western junior cornerback Michael Jordan and senior linebacker Stephen Juergens have been named to the DAKTRONICS All-Super Region 3 second team. The two Griffons were among 19 MIAA student-athletes honored, the most of any conference in the region.

Jordan was also a first-team All-MIAA selection this season. The junior’s 16 passes defended were tops in the MIAA. He also tied for the MIAA lead with four interceptions this season. He took one of those interceptions back 39 yards for a touchdown at Washburn. He was the MIAA Freshman of the year and an honorable mention pick in 2012.

After leading the Griffons in tackles for the third straight year and earning MIAA Defensive Athlete of the Week once, Juergens landed a second team nod. The senior tallied 108 total tackles, including 59 solo stops. He also led the team with 12 tackles for loss and added 3.5 sacks and an interception.  Juergens was also a key part of a Griffon defense that finished third in the MIAA in total defense and allowed the second fewest points in school history (179).
