Herres was named to the NACDA/FCS Athletic Directors Association (ADA) All-America Team in addition to being named a First Team All-American by both the Associated Press (AP) and American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) for offense.
Snyder was recognized with Herres by the Associated Press and was listed as an AP First Team All-American for the defensive side of the ball.
Herres, named Southern Conference Offensive Player of the Year in both the coaches' and media polls, led the Keydets in receiving during the season with 80 catches for 978 yards and eight touchdowns, averaging 12.2 yards per grab and 122.2 yards per game, all of which led the Southern Conference. Herres was also one of 16 finalists for the Stats Perform Walter Payton Award for the national FCS Offensive Player of the Year. In addition, the Easton, Pennsylvania, native was named the offensive end Player of the Year for Division I colleges and universities in the commonwealth of Virginia by the Touchdown Club of Richmond.
Snyder was named the Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Year in both the media and coaches' polls after leading the league in tackles per game (11.0) – 76 in seven regular season games, including a career-high 21 versus The Citadel. In helping VMI capture its first SoCon title since 1977 and first-ever FCS playoffs bid, he had 9.5 tackles for loss (64 yards), eight sacks and four QB hurries. He also had 12 tackles in the first round of the playoffs against #1 James Madison on April 24.
