NORMAN, Oklahoma -- Oklahoma defensive lineman Gerald McCoy and offensive tackle Trent Williams were named All-American on the 120th Walter Camp Foundation team released Thursday night.

Williams had been named an All-American earlier this month as part of the American Football Coaches Association team. He is now joined by McCoy, the school’s 150th All-America selection. Both were named to the first team.

McCoy also became the 37th Sooner player to earn All-America honors in more than one season. He was named to All-America teams by The Sporting News and Sports Illustrated after the 2008 season.

The junior defensive tackle from Oklahoma City racked up 31 tackles and five sacks.

McCoy broke up two passes, forced one fumble and recovered one fumble. The senior set the school record for most consecutive starts by a defensive lineman at 38.
