Phillip Hiner-Leamon Elected to SCAC All-Sportsmanship Team

San Antonio - Trinity University Tigers junior linebacker Phillip Hiner-Leamon (Frisco, Texas/Greenhill High School) has been named to the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Football All-Sportsmanship Team.
 
The SCAC places a special emphasis on sportsmanship each year, and has asked all fans of the conference to exhibit good sportsmanship at all conference functions throughout the 2011-2012 season.
 
The 6-foot, 220-pound Hiner-Leamon earlier was elected to the All-SCAC First Team. During the season, Hiner-Leamon tied for the SCAC lead with six quarterback sacks, for a loss of 23 yards. He registered 44 total tackles (23 solo), 11 tackles for a loss of 39 yards, six quarterback hurries, and forced two fumbles.
 
Last summer, Hiner-Leamon participated in a prestigious United States Olympic Committee program known as F.L.A.M.E. (Finding Leaders Among Minorities Everywhere) in Colorado Springs, Colo. A business administration major (management), Hiner-Leamon engaged in leadership seminars, financial literacy workshops, field trips, sports demonstrations, and motivational presentations conducted by athletes and USOC staff members.
 
Trinity, led by head coach Steve Mohr, finished the regular season with a 10-0 record, the Tigers first undefeated campaign since 2005. The Tigers won their 15th SCAC Championship, and made a 12th appearance in the NCAA Division III Tournament. McMurry beat Trinity 25-16 in the opening round of the playoffs, in a game played Nov. 19 at the Trinity University Football Stadium.
