Webb Named All-American

Greg Webb is the second All-American from Timber Creek in the last two seasons.

Timber Creek defensive tackle Greg Webb will be formally introduced as a U.S. Army All-American at a press conference at the Erial school on Monday.

Webb is the second Timber Creek player to garner All-American honors in the past two seasons. Linebacker Quanzell Lambert, who is now playing for Rutgers, was picked for the inaugural Junior Rank Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl last season.

Webb, a senior who had previously committed to Penn State, plans to attend the University of North Carolina and play football there along with fellow Timber Creek defensive lineman Dajaun Drennon.
