ITHACA, N.Y. -- Three Cornell football players have been named to the 2011 ECAC Football Championship Subdivision All-Star Team. Senior place-kicker Brad Greenway was a first-team selection, while senior wide receiver Shane Savage and senior return specialist Rashad Campbell were picked for the second team. The voting was done by the coaches or their designee in the ECAC Division I membership.

Greenway, an honorable mention All-American, first-team All-Ivy selection and a finalist for the Fred Mitchell Award, led the Ancient Eight in scoring (7.5 points per game), ranking 41st nationally. He set the Cornell kick scoring record for a career (189 points) and season (75 points), while his 189 career points ranks third all-time in Big Red history. Greenway finished 18th nationally in field goals (13, 1.3 per game), a mark that was second in the Ancient Eight. He was the only kicker in the Ivy League to post a perfect season on extra-point kicks (36-of-36) and was 5-of-5 on field goals of 40 yards or more. The two-time Special Teams Player of the Week also kicked off and punted for Cornell and was the team's captain on special teams.

Savage has been named to a number of FCS All-America teams this offseason. He was a first-team All-Ivy League selection for the first time after leading the Ivy League in receptions (65), receiving yards (1080) and receiving touchdowns (12) in 2011. He finished fifth nationally in yards per game and 13th in receptions per game while setting school records for season yards and touchdowns. Savage averaged 123 yards per game in league games (860 yards) with nine touchdowns in seven contests. His 12 touchdowns ranks sixth all-time in a season in Ivy history, and his three touchdowns against both Columbia and Penn tied a school record. A first-team Capital One Academic All-District selection, Savage posted four 100-yard games in 2011 and had four contests with multiple touchdowns. He had 199 receiving yards vs. Columbia, the second-highest total in a game in Cornell history.

A first-team All-Ivy selection, Campbell set an Ivy League record for kick return yards in a season (994) and became the first Cornellian to score on two kickoff returns in one year, the only Ivy player with multiple returns for a score. He ranked second in the Ancient Eight in kick return average among those with at least 20 returns and earned Ivy League Special Teams Player of the Week once. His 1,921 career kickoff return yards ranks third all-time in the Ivy League. The three-year starter at cornerback was also a second-team All-Ivy pick on defense.
