Phil Steele Honors Three Owls On All-America Team

PHILADELPHIA - Phil Steele has released his Postseason All-American and All-Conference Teams. Phil Steele's College Football Preview is one of the nation's most informative preseason football magazines and has always released Preseason and Postseason All-American teams as well as All-Conference teams.

This season's All-America teams boast three Temple Owls: Senior LB Tyler Matakevich earned first-team honors, senior DT Matt Ioannidis garnered third-team recognition, and junior OL Dion Dawkins was a fourth-team member.
