Menominee Indian junior Andre Corn was named to the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association All-Region team for the 2021 alternate fall season.

Corn made the list as a defensive back.

Despite being knocked out of a couple games with injuries, Corn was still able to accumulate 58 total tackles across the team’s four games. Forty-five of those tackles were solo.

Corn had five tackles for losses and also tallied two sacks, two fumbles forced and two interceptions.

“This is really big for me,” said Corn of the honor. “All the hard work I put into this sport that I love is all paying off.

“I watched my grandma (Clare Corn) battle through the toughest times, and she was always my role model. She taught me to be strong, brave, and to fight for anything that I want in my life. I knew she was always there with me, watching over me. I knew I had to be strong for her and I just tried to battle through that.”

Menominee Indian finished the season with an 0-4 record, having to end its season two games early because of injury issues.
