Three Fresno State football seniors were named to the All-Mountain West Conference first team Tuesday: wide receiver Mac Dalena, linebacker Tuasivi Nomura, and cornerback Cam Lockridge.

Mountain West coaches and a media panel made the selections.

Check out the All-MW second team and honorable mention choices at this link.

Dalena Exceeds Expectations

Dalena ranked fourth in the conference in receiving with 58 receptions for 947 yards with eight touchdowns. He’s been a Bulldog his whole career. Coming into the year, he was a preseason conference selection for the third and fourth teams, so his performance exceeded expectations.

Nomura Follows in Walker’s Footsteps

Nomura, a transfer from USC, finished sixth in the MW for tackles with 97. He’s Fresno State’s first first-team linebacker since Mykal Walker in 2019.

Lockridge Shines Despite Limited Play

Lockridge was not only one of the best cornerbacks in the conference but in the FBS as well while playing nine games. He’s No. 1 (MW) & No. 6 (FBS) in passes defended (7 passes broken up); No. 1 (MW) & No. 2 (FBS) in interceptions (5); and No. 6 in fumbles recovered.

The potential first-round draft pick is the first Bulldog cornerback selected All-MW first team since Tank Kelly in 2018.

Boise State and UNLV Dominate Individual Honors

Boise State and UNLV, which are in the conference championship game on Friday, took home the big individual honors.

Offensive Player of the Year went to Boise State junior running back and Heisman hopeful Ashton Jeanty. Broncos head coach Spencer Danielson received the Coach of the Year award.

UNLV senior linebacker Jackson Woodard is the Defensive Player of the Year. Teammate Ricky White III, a junior wide receiver, is the Special Teams Player of the Year and Rebels freshman placekicker Caden Chittenden is the Freshman of the Year.

Fresno State awaits its bowl game destination with the announcement taking place on Dec. 8.
