FOOTBALL, 1997-2000
Part of the extremely talented inaugural Division I recruiting class of 1996, Orshawante Bryant lived up to the billing, setting 10 PSU records as a wide receiver and kick returner. He remains Portland State’s all-time leader in receiving yards (3,449) and receptions (223). Bryant was also a talented kick return man, sharing the school record for return average in a season (29.4). 

He ranks fourth all-time at PSU in all-purpose yards (5,428) and was named to the All-Big Sky Conference team three times, leading the conference in receiving yards twice. Bryant was also a star on the first Viking team to reach the Division I-AA Playoffs in 2000, before going on to a long career in the Arena Football League.
