CLEVELAND, Ohio-Graduate student placekicker Michael Braunstein (Gilbert, Az.) and junior defensive end Jameson Hartke (Centerville, Ohio) were named to the MAC's All-Academic Team late Tuesday by the league office. Hartke was also named to the team last season.

Braunstein finished the season with a school-records in field goals (20) and extra-point percentage (100.0, 38-38). His 83.3 percent field goal percentage this season also now stands as Ohio's top career mark as well. He was named All-MAC by the league office and Rivals.com earlier this season.

Hartke had 51 tackles this season, including 5.5 tackles for loss and 2.0 sacks. He also tallied four pass breakups and returned an interception 30 yards for a touchdown in the 33-32 loss to Wyoming. His 13.5 career sacks now put him in sole possession of fifth on the school's all-time list. He was named third-team All-MAC by the league office last month.
