INDIANAPOLIS – UIndy student-athletes
Toriano Clinton and
Connor Steeb were named to the 2020-21 Academic All-District® Football Team, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). The annual release recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances athletically and in the classroom.
Â
Though he played in just two games, Clinton made a giant impact on the shortened spring season. The highlight came in the inaugural GLVC Championship game when the Calumet, Ill., product racked up 235 rushing yards and scored four total touchdowns, leading the Greyhounds to a
46-29 victory. Clinton owns a 3.42 GPA in Sport Management and is currently the program's career leader in both rushing average (8.4 yds per carry) and kickoff return average (33.2 yds per att).
Â
A three-year starter at safety, Steeb capped his Greyhound career this spring with a All-GLVC First Team nod from the league's coaches. The Greenwood, Ind., native and former Center Grove High School standout led the GLVC with 27 total tackles on the year, adding three pass break-ups in the aforementioned GLVC Championship game. Steeb is a 3.8 student in UIndy's MBA program.
UIndy's two Academic All-District® honorees will advance to the Academic All-America® Team ballot, where first-, second- and third-team honorees will be selected soon..
