1892 All-America college football team


The 1892 All-America college football team was composed of college football players who were selected as the best players at their respective positions for the 1892 college football season, as selected by Caspar Whitney for Harper's Weekly and Walter Camp. Whitney began publishing his All-America team in 1889, and his list, which was considered the official All-America team, was published in Harper's Weekly from 1891 to 1896. Harvard Law School student and football center William H. Lewis became the first African-American to be selected as an All-American in 1892, an honor he would receive again in 1893.
