The American Football Coaches Association named University of Tennessee at Chattanooga defensive lineman Isaiah Mack to his fifth 2018 All-America team on Saturday.

Mack, a former Northwest Whitfield High School standout who graduated this month from UTC, is on the AFCA’s All-American first team for the Football Championship Subdivision.

He previously was a first-team choice this season by The Associated Press, the Walter Camp Foundation, STATS and HeroSports.com. He had 8.5 sacks, 11.5 tackles for lost yardage and two forced fumbles in 2018 and was the Southern Conference defensive player of the year and a finalist for the national Buck Buchanan Award.
