TALLAHASSEE, Fla. –– Florida A&M Football has a student-athlete named to the Athlon Sports Preseason All-American team for the third straight year as punter Trey Wilhoit was named a 2023 Athlon Sports FCS Preseason All-American.
"
Trey Wilhoit was arguably our biggest "get" out of the transfer this offseason and his All-American nod further supports that notion," said Head Coach
Willie Simmons. "We are excited to see him continue the tradition of great punters from FAMU like Greg and Vince Coleman, Vaughn Wilson and just recently
Chris Faddoul."
Trey Wilhoit joined the Rattlers after spending the 2022 season at Eastern Illinois. In 2022, Wilhoit was named to the All-OVC 1st Team and an FCS Punter of the Year Semifinalist. Wilhoit finished the season ranked 6th in the nation with an average of 44 yards per punt.
Wilhoit joins the names of Isaiah Land and Markquese Bell to extend the Rattlers' streak of Athlon Sports Preseason All-Americans. Wilhoit is one of two student-athletes representing an HBCU and the only one from the SWAC.
