TOPEKA, Kans.  -  Henderson State tight end Cayden Davis has been named to the D2CCA's All-Region First Team for Super Region 3. Davis is just the second tight end in program history to receive this honor, and he is the first to do so since Sean McGrath in 2010.

A native of Caddo Mills, Texas, Davis led all Great American Conference pass catchers with six receiving touchdowns in 2024. His 19.5 yards per catch average was the highest among GAC players with at least 20 receptions during the regular season. The redshirt junior also finished eighth in the league with 430 receiving yards. In this year's opening game at East Central, he recorded an 84-yard touchdown that ended up being tied for the longest reception during the 2024 GAC season.

This is Davis' second straight year with a D2CCA All-Region nod. He was named to the Second Team in 2023. The Reddies have had a tight end named to an all-region team in each of the last three seasons (Mike Benning received Second Team honors in 2022).

Last month, Davis was named an All-GAC First Team honoree for the second time in his career. He is set to return to HSU for his senior season in 2025.
