DAVIS, Calif. – Now a five-time All-American, redshirt-junior linebacker David Meyer has been named an All-American by the Walter Camp Football Foundation as part of their 2024 Football Championship Subdivision All-American teams.
 
Meyer was named an All-American by the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA), Stats Perform, FCS Football Central and Phil Steele to go along with his Walter Camp Football Foundation nod.
 
He is one of only two Big Sky members on the defensive side of the ball named All-Americans by the Walter Camp Football Foundation and he is one of seven Big Sky student-athletes to be named to the list.
 
The team leader in tackles with 122, Meyer made the trip up from Cal Poly via graduate transfer and his impact was felt immediately among the Aggie linebacking corps. His 122 total tackles ranks him second all-time in program history, and he comes only the fourth Aggie in history to reach the century mark in total tackles during a single season.
 
Meyer originally set the solo tackles record, setting the record and holding it for one game after getting his 64th solo tackle of the season against No. 12 Illinois State in the second round of the NCAA Division I Championships. But he was passed, by just one solo tackle, by teammate Rex Connors who wrestled the record away from his teammate in the Aggies quarterfinal match up at No. 4 South Dakota.
 
He finished 11th in the nation in solo tackles per game (6.7) and his 8.7 tackles per game ranked him 30th among the nation's best. The Aggie linebacker was named first team All-Big Sky Conference, earned a pair of Big Sky defensive player of the week honors and a national defensive player of the week nod following his performance against Northern Colorado.
