Three Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association football student-athletes from Kalamazoo College were named to the 2019 Academic All-District® Division III Football Team, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), on Thursday for their academic and athletic success.

Kalamazoo's Hunter Angileri (Sr., C, Southgate, Mich.), Greg Kearns (Sr., K, Howell, Mich.), and Noah Coplan (Jr., DL, River Forest, Ill.) were voted to the All-District® 6 team. Angileri and Kearns are repeat recipients of Academic All-District® honors, earning accolades in 2018.

All three student-athletes are now eligible for CoSIDA Academic All-America® honors.

Angileri, a three-year starter for the Hornets, has a 3.90 grade-point average in Chemistry. This year, Angileri is the anchor of an offensive line that contributes to 152.8 rushing yards per game in MIAA play and 315.0 total yards per game. 

Kearns boasts a 3.72 GPA in Business and is a four-time MIAA Special Teams Player of the Week honoree, including once this season. Kearns has converted on all seven field goal attempts in 2019 and is 19 of 20 on extra-point tries.

Coplan owns a 3.65 GPA in Business; this season, Coplan has 51 tackles including 29 solo tackles. Coplan also has 8.5 tackles for loss, including 4.5 sacks, to go with one forced fumble.

CoSIDA's NCAA Division III District 6 includes Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. Members of CoSIDA from the district vote on Academic All-District® honors. Student-athletes must be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.30 GPA on a 4.0 scale and must have completed one full calendar year at the nominating institution to be eligible.
