Forbes, Terry, Hall and Custis Named to Phil Steele FCS All-America Teams

Southeast Missouri offensive tackle Drew Forbes, running back Marquis Terry, linebacker Zach Hall and return specialist Zion Custis were named to the 2018 Phil Steele FCS All-America Teams.

Forbes, also named the Offensive Lineman of the Year by the publication, earned first-team honors, while Terry secured third-team accolades. Hall was a first-team selection on defense and Custis claimed the only first-team honor by an Ohio Valley Conference freshman on special teams.

Forbes, who hails from Bonne Terre, Missouri, finished his outstanding career as a First-Team All-OVC honoree. He landed a spot on multiple All-America teams.

Terry, a native of Atlanta, Georgia, was this year's OVC Offensive Player of the Year after leading the league in rushing yards (1,229), rushing touchdowns (14) and rushing yards per game (94.5). He ran for over 100 yards a league-high six times with an OVC and school record 311 at Southern Illinois (Sept. 15). Terry, too, earned multiple All-America accolades.

A native of Louisville, Kentucky, Hall is one of three finalists for this year's Buck Buchanan Award which will be handed out in Frisco, Texas tonight. He led SEMO with a single-season record 168 tackles, including 67 solo stops. Hall also tallied 12 tackles for loss, two sacks a team-high four interceptions, a team-high four forced fumbles, one safety and a blocked field goal. He is the OVC Defensive Player of the Year and the first OVC player to win the Athletics Directors Association (ADA) FCS Defensive Player of the Year. Hall led the OVC and ranked second in the FCS in tackles en route to landing a spot on several All-America teams.

Custis, from Lovejoy, Georgia, returned 15 kicks for 497 total yards, averaging 33.1 yards per return, a mark that ranked fifth nationally and first among freshmen. He added a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Eastern Illinois, a game he finished with 180 kick return yards. Overall, Custis averaged 86.7 all-purpose yards/game in 2018.
