Pierce, Wolcott earn CoSIDA Academic All-District honors

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – For the second straight year, the Lycoming College football team had two players earn Academic All-District 4 honors from the College Sports Information Directors of America, as senior offensive lineman Kyle Pierce (Berwick, Pa./Berwick Area) and sophomore tight end Aaron Wolcott (Woodbine, Md./Century) were honored, the organization announced on Thursday, June 10.
 
Pierce and Wolcott both earn the award for the first time, as they are the 25th and 26th Warriors to earn a spot on the all-district team. Pierce's selection marks the fourth straight year that a Warrior offensive lineman was honored and Wolcott is the team's first tight end to earn selection.
 
Pierce started 21 games in a row and appeared in 31 in his career while splitting time as an offensive and defensive lineman. The engineering physics major moved to his spot as a permanent offensive lineman in the last seven weeks of 2020, earning Honorable Mention All-MAC honors as the team's center. As a sophomore, he played both ways in the last 10 games of the year and finished with 32 tackles before starting his junior year with 11 tackles, a sack and forced fumble in just three games. As a freshman, he had 22 tackles, 3.5 for loss and a sack as he played exclusively on the defensive side of the ball. He has been honored as a member of the MAC Academic Honor Roll three times and is a member of the Chi Alpha Sigma Athletics honor society.
 
Wolcott took over the team's starting tight end position as a freshman, starting seven of the nine games he appeared in 2019, making nine receptions for 71 yards. He posted three catches for 35 yards against King's.
 
The Warriors' regular season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The team played one spring game, posting a 31-7 win over Misericordia. They open the fall 2021 season on Saturday, Sept. 4, with a 1 p.m. game at Susquehanna.
