Valparaiso University’s Adam
Rundh (Aalborg, Denmark/Orjanskolan
H.S. [Sweden])
is among the 55 members named to the 12th annual Football
Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association (FCS ADA) Academic
All-Star Team.
For Rundh, it is yet another academic honor in addition to
being named a ESPN The Magazine First
Team Academic All-America selection this year after being a Second Team
selection a year ago. He is also a
three-time Academic All-District V pick.
The senior defensive lineman tallied 36 tackles in 2009,
including seven for loss. He had 3.5
quarterback sacks, two pass break-ups, and three other quarterback
hurries. He also blocked an extra point
attempt in the season finale against Morehead
State.
Rundh finished his career with the Crusaders with 124 total
tackles, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and four blocked kicks. He had 33 tackles for loss, including 14
sacks.
A two-time Honorable Mention All-Pioneer Football League
selection, Rundh has been voted to the Pioneer Football League All-Academic
Team twice as well. An international
business and finance double major, he carries a 3.94 cumulative grade point
average.
Nominees for the FCS ADA Academic All-Star Team had to have
a minimum 3.20 grade point average as well as a starter or key reserve. They also must be in their second year of
athletics, participated in 50% of the games played at their designated
position, and be a starter or key reserve with legitimate athletics
credentials.
