A record-breaking season by Central College wide receiver Sam Markham was punctuated over the weekend with a spot on the D3football.com all-America squad’s third team.

Markham is the 36th all-American in program history and the first since free safety Jacob Edleman was bestowed with the honors in 2014. He’s the first offensive all-American for Central in a decade and the first ever Dutch wide receiver to receive the honor.

A first-team all-Iowa Conference selection this season, Markham led all of Division III with 105 catches. He was ninth nationally with 1,215 receiving yards and 22nd with 12 touchdowns.

Central finished the season 8-2 overall and 6-2 in Iowa Conference play.
