CLEVELAND, Miss. -- Marvin Terry continues to rack up post-season honors as the Dallas native was selected to D2Football.com's First-Team Elite 100.
Terry's 2021 season honors also include AFCA First-Team All-Super Region II and All-American along with first First-Team All-Gulf South Conference, GSC Defensive Player of the Year and a C-Spire Conerly Trophy finalist. Terry became the 62nd Statesmen to earn All-American honors and is the 15th under head coach Todd Cooley.
The product out of Dallas, Texas, had a banner year for the Statesmen, topping the GSC with 18.5 tackles for loss (16th in NCAA), 10 sacks (8th NCAA), 1.0 sacks per game, and 16 solo tackles for loss while ranking second in the league with 47 solo tackles. Terry rounded out his defensive prowess with 62 total tackles.
Terry recorded 11 tackles, four tackles for loss, and 2.5 sacks against Jackson State in week three of the season, while his four sacks against Shorter University were tied for the second-most in a game in school history.
The Statesmen defense ranked first in interceptions (12), turnovers gained (25) and fumbles recovered (13) while also leading the conference in third-down defense conversion percentage (30.5) sacks per game (2.5). DSU also ranked third in the GSC and his 8.2 tackles-for-loss per game led the GSC (15th NCAA).
