Schoonover is one of 47 Mavericks to have been named an All-American in the programs history and is the sixth to receive an All-American award from the AFCA.
This past season, Schoonover anchored a Maverick offensive line that helped the Mavericks total 4,749 yards of total offense (2,601 rushing, 2,148 passing).
