*-unanimous decision

^-second team expanded due to ties in the voting

I'm happy with just about all of the results above, with the exception of Bewley Wales being put on the 2nd Team... but that is still a great honor.

I'm really happy QB Anders Hill made the 2nd Team as opposed to Honorable Mention. And I can now confirm he is getting interest from NFL scouting agents. 

And the future does indeed seem bright. Because two of the senior All Ivy awardees are planning to return for 5th years, (I cannot report which two as of now, but it's not QB Hill or DB Cameron Roane), Columbia can expect to have six returning All Ivy players on the roster to start next season, which is probably a record for us. 

The most important "All Ivy" returnee is of course 2017 Ivy League Coach of the Year Al Bagnoli. We expected him to get this award, but it's still a big deal.
