LUBBOCK, Texas - Senior receiver Trey Haverty picked up his second national honor today as he was named to the Associated Press All-America Third-Team.
Haverty, a senior from Richardson, Texas, was one of 13 players from the Big 12 Conference to make one of the three Associated Press teams and was one of just two receivers honored.
Entering the 2004 campaign Haverty had just one touchdown catch and 33 combined receptions for a total of 307 yards as he saw limited playing time behind standout receivers Wes Welker and Mickey Peters. But, in 2004, "Big Play Trey" finished the regular season with 69 catches for 872 yards and six touchdowns. He averaged 79.3 yards receiving per-game and was the second-leading receiver in the Big 12 behind teammate Jarrett Hicks. He was especially crucial to Tech's success down the stretch as five of his six touchdown catches have come in the final five games of the season.
Haverty and the Red Raiders still have one more game remaining on the 2004 schedule as No. 21 Texas Tech will take on fourth-ranked California in the Holiday Bowl in San Diego on Dec. 30. Game time is set for 5 p.m. (PT).
