HANOVER, N.H. — A pair of Dartmouth football players were recognized by the Associated Press on Tuesday with honorable mention All-America recognition. Junior tight end
Chris Corbo and junior offensive lineman
Delby Lemieux both received the honors.
Â
The two are the Big Green's first AP All-Americans since 2021. Both were named first team All-Ivy after the season.
Â
Corbo led the Big Green with seven touchdown receptions this season — most by a Dartmouth player since Drew Estrada had eight in 2019. His 32 receptions were second on the team, while his 315 yards were third. Corbo had a touchdown in seven of the 10 games in a remarkably consistent season. His career high for receptions came at Princeton (8) with his career high for yards coming against Penn (seven catches for 51 yards). His seven receiving touchdowns are good for 42nd nationally and fifth in the Ivy League. It's also second in the nation amongst tight ends, while his 1.4 touchdowns per game lead the country amongst his position. Corbo was also named to the All-New England Team.
Â
Lemieux helped anchor a strong offensive line, as the Big Green finished top 20 nationally in fewest sacks allowed while finishing third in the Ivy League in rushing offense (166.5 yards per game). They helped pave the way for running back
Q Jones, who was named first team All-Ivy as well. Individually, Lemieux didn't give up a sack, allowing just seven pressures.
Â
The Big Green wrapped up their third straight Ivy League Championship with their 56-28 win over Brown, combined with Yale's victory over Harvard.
