CLEVELAND - For a third consecutive year, Delta State University senior All-American linebacker Lardester Hicks-Green has been named to the Daktronics All-Super Region Two First Team, as released by Daktronics on Wednesday.  Joining Hicks-Green on the All-Region Team is senior offensive lineman Brad Latham, who was a Second Team selection.  

Hicks-Green, a 6-foot-1, 235 pound Chicago, Ill., native, led the Statesmen in tackles for a second-straight year with 94 stops.  The 2008 Super Region Two Defensive Player of the Year and First Team selection also tallied 15.0 tackles-for-loss and 4.5 sacks.  As a sophomore in 2007, the hard-hitting middle linebacker was named to the Second Team.  

Latham, a 6-foot-4, 305 pound senior from Tuscaloosa, Ala., earned his first career honor, after being named to the All-Gulf South Conference Team last week.  The four-year starter at right tackle and left guard, graded at 90-percent or better in every game for the Statesmen (5-5) and ranked among the team leaders in knockdown and pancake blocks.  

The 2009 Daktronics All-Super Region Two First and Second Team were nominated and selected by the Sports Information Directors within the region.  The team is sponsored by Daktronics, Inc., an acknowledged world leader in scoring, timing and programmable display systems for virtually every sport at every level of competition.
