IRVING, Texas -- Two 2014 graduates of the Colorado State football program -- offensive lineman Mason Myers and kicker Jared Roberts -- were recognized on Wednesday when the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame (NFF) announced its class for the NFF Hampshire Honor Society.
The NFF Hampshire Honor Society recognizes players from all divisions of play who each maintained a cumulative 3.2 grade-point average or better throughout their college career, while being significant contributors to their team.
Myers, a business administration major, started in all 13 games for the Rams at left guard while helping block for a 4,000-yard passer (Garrett Grayson) and a 1,200-yard rusher (Dee Hart). The native of Moore, Okla., played in 42 games at CSU.
Roberts graduated in three years with a bachelor's degree in business administration and a minor in media studies before beginning a master's program his senior year. The native of Littleton, Colo., set the CSU and Mountain West record converting 111 consecutive PATs and scored 270 points in his career, the third-most all-time by a CSU player.
The 2015 NFF Hampshire Honor Society class of 2014 includes a total of 817 players from 278 schools, setting a new record for the number of schools represented in the history of the program, which began in 2007.
Last year, three Rams -- Tanner Hedstrom, Chris Nwoke and Weston Richburg -- earned the same honor.
