RUSTON (June 18) - Louisiana Tech senior wide receiver Sean Cangelosi was named to the Football News 2000 Preseason All-Independent squad which was released Sunday, June 18.

The honor marked the second time Cangelosi has earned the honor from the publication as the Baton Rouge native was named to the 1999 postseason team after catching 62 passes for 943 yards and 10 touchdowns last year. The 6-foot-4-inch wide-out joined teammates James Jordan, John Simon and Delwyn Daigre as the first foursome in NCAA Division I history to each catch 60 or more passes in a season.

Notre Dame and Navy led all independents with six players each on the squad.
