2021 ALL-MAC SECOND TEAM (COACHES): Wide Receiver - Hassan Beydoun, Eastern Michigan,...Earning honors for the second straight season after being named to the All-MAC third team in 2020, Beydoun brings home a second team nod in 2021. One of this year's nominees for the Burlsworth Trophy, awarded to the nation's best former walk-on, Beydoun has been a critical factor in the explosiveness of the EMU offense this year. Beydoun has recorded three games with 10+ catches this season. He is currently one of only three players in the NCAA to have three-or-more such games (Jerreth Sterns - Western Kentucky.; Drake London - Southern California).

Beydoun was electric in EMU's win at Toledo, Nov. 2. He finished the game with a career-high 197 reception yards on 12 catches. Additionally, the wideout's effort is the 14th best by any player in the NCAA this season. The 197 yards is the most by any Eagle receiver in a game this year and the second-best effort by any player in the MAC. The Dearborn, Mich. native hauled in a season-long 64-yard touchdown in EMU's opening drive of the second half against the Rockets. The reception was the second-longest of Beydoun's career, just two yards shy of the 66-yard catch he recorded at Western Michigan, Dec. 5, 2020. - Eastern Michigan Football

2021 ALL-SUN BELT HONORABLE MENTION (COACHES): RB - Braydon Bennett (RS Fr., RB - Greenville, S.C.),...Also picking up honorable mention accolades was Bennett, a key part of the leading rushing attack in the Sun Belt this season. The redshirt freshman has shown his versatility all season long with 68 carries for 528 yards and five touchdowns on the ground and 20 receptions for 248 yards and a touchdown in the passing game. He is averaging 12.4 yards per catch and a team-high 7.8 yards per rush on the season out of the backfield.
