Football, 1987-90
A native of Gorham, Kansas, Greg Yost played football at Fort Hays State from 1987-90. He was an All-America First Team selection as a defensive lineman his senior year of 1990 and was an All-CSIC First Team selection in both 1989 and 1990. Overall, he was a three-time all-conference selection. Yost was a four-year starter for the Tigers, playing in a total of 35 games. He played only three games his sophomore year after suffering a season-ending injury. In 1990 as a senior, he produced a staggering 97 tackles, nine sacks, and 17 tackles for loss, and led the team in pass breakups with 12 from his defensive tackle position to earn the All-America First Team selection. He helped the Tigers to a record of 8-4 in 1990 and an appearance in the NAIA national playoffs, the final season before FHSU made its full transition to the NCAA. Yost set career records for both sacks and tackles for loss at FHSU. He finished with 20 sacks and 43 tackles for loss in his career. Though the sacks record has only been topped twice, he still owns the tackles for loss record. He had 225 tackles over his four seasons at FHSU.
