Chad Gailliard, of Dearborn, Mich. named to Don Hansen All-Super Region Three Team

2018 Jan 24

Saginaw Valley State University redshirt freshman wide receiver Chad Gailliard was named to the annual Don Hansen All-Super Region Three Team for the 2017 season.

Gailliard, the GLIAC Freshman of the Year and All-GLIAC First Team wideout, earned Second Team Offensive honors for the All-Super Region Three squad. Gailliard led the GLIAC with his 84.9 receiving yards per game in his first season for the Cardinals. He reeled-in 42 catches for a league-leading 934 yards and eight touchdowns. He averaged 22.2 yards per receptions as well, which also led the league. Gailliard had over 100 yards receiving in four games, including 229 yards in the team's victory at NMU on Oct. 21. That marked the most yards by any GLIAC receiver in the 2017 campaign.

The Don Hansen team carries out the legacy of long-time small college football advocate Don Hansen, who passed away at age 75 on Aug. 29, 2010. Hansen, from Brookfield, Ill., started and published Don Hansen's National Weekly Football Gazette for three decades, selecting NCAA Division II All-America teams for the first time in 1988. Don Hansen's Football Gazette began selecting Division II All-Region squads in 2003.

The first-team and second-team All-Region selections advance to a national ballot from which the 2017 Don Hansen NCAA Division II All-America team will be selected.
