Buffalo State football offensive lineman Hans Mann was named Second Team Preseason All-America by D3football.com.

The senior 6'5" 340-pound tackle enters his fourth season as a starter as one of the most dominating run and pass blockers in the nation. Mann will anchor a Bengals offensive line that returns four players who have experience in starting roles.

The offensive line will be put to its first test of the 2002 season this Saturday (September 7) at Division I-AA Robert Morris (PA).
