ARKADELPHIA, Ark. – The Division II Conference Commissioner's Association (D2CCA) announced its annual all-region honorees for their four super regions on Thursday and in the release, the Arkansas Tech football team had a pair of honorees earn All-Super Region 3 plaudits.
 
Headlining the all-region acclaim for the Wonder Boys was punter Aaron Winn as he was selected to the first team. As a first team all-region honoree, Winn will now move on for consideration for the D2CCA All-America Football team that will be announced later in December.
 
In addition to Winn, Tech's Vershaud Richardson was named to the second team on the defensive line.
 
The all-region honors are the first for both Richardson and Winn and mark the second-consecutive year that the Wonder Boys have had representation on the all-region list.
 
A native of Summersville, S.C., Winn had his best season in the Green and Gold in his final year.
 
Called up to punt 42 times throughout the season, Winn totaled 1,892 yards for an average of 45.1 yards per punt. His yards per punt average currently leads the GAC and is the top mark in all of NCAA Division II.
 
Additionally, out of his 42 punts, 12 traveled 50 or more yards while his long was a boot of 63 yards. Only three of his punts went into the endzone for touchbacks while 14 were pinned inside the 20-yardline.
 
A GAC Honorable Mention selection at defensive end, Richardson totaled 55 tackles in his first season with the Wonder Boys. Of those, 16.0 were for lost yardage and 10.5 of those came as QB sacks. Both his TFL and sack numbers were second in the GAC and ranked in the top-30 in all DII. His 10.5 sacks were the fourth-highest total in Tech history.
