LSU's Will Campbell named AP First-Team All American
Since he started his first game against Florida State in the Superdome, Will Campbell has been able to carve out his role in LSU history as one of the best offensive linemen to wear the purple and gold. On Monday afternoon, LSU junior left tackle Will Campbell added his third first-team All-America honor on Monday as he was selected to the Associated Press All-America team, the organization announced.
The first-team honor is the third for Campbell, who has also been named to the Walter Camp and AFCA All-America teams. Campbell was also co-recipient of the SEC’s Jacobs Blocking Trophy and one of four finalists for the Lombardi Award.
Campbell becomes the first LSU offensive lineman selected first-team AP All-America since Herman Johnson in 2008.
A three-year starter at left tackle for the Tigers, Campbell capped his LSU career with two first-team All-SEC honors and second-team all-conference recognition as a true freshman in 2022. He earned Freshman All-America honors in 2022 and was named to the SEC Academic Honor Roll last year.
