   BIRMINGHAM, ALA. --- University of Arkansas at Monticello running back John L. Williams, a sophomore from Gainesville, Fla., and defensive back DeMathus Ledet a senior from Lafayette, La., received second team All-Gulf South Conference honors for their play during the 2005 season.

   The award marks the second time that Ledet earned All-GSC honors as the free safety followed up a stellar junior campaign with a senior year that saw him become one of the team’s defensive leaders. He finished the season ranking fourth in the GSC and 22nd in the nation in interceptions (6), first in the GSC and 13th nationally in tackles (116), and second in the GSC and 23rd nationally in tackles per game (10.5).

All GSC Awardee -John L. Williams

   Williams takes home his first award after shouldering the great majority of the workload at tailback for the Boll Weevils in his sophomore campaign. Williams finished second in the GSC and 45th nationally with 99.5 rushing yards per game and 10th in the GSC in all-purpose yards, averaging 105.4 yards per game. Williams’ 206-yard game against Ouachita and 237-yard game against Arkansas Tech marked the only two times that the 200-yard barrier was broken in the GSC this season.

   With their selections to the All-GSC team, Williams and Ledet will now be eligible for All-Region voting.
