ST. JOSEPH – Two members of the Missouri Western football team have been named Academic All-District by CoSIDA.

Offensive Lineman Max Oeser and running back Josh Caldwell were both named to the first team. A criminal justice major, Caldwell has rushed for 1,225 yards, which currently leads the MIAA and ranks No. 5 in the nation. The sophomore has a 3.42 GPA and is a criminal justice major. Oeser has started 20 consecutive games at center, blocking for two 1,000 yard rushers.

Both Griffons are now eligible for Academic All-American status by CoSIDA. They were two of seven MIAA football student-athletes on the team. No other MIAA member had more than one representative on the team.
