Four Ellsworth Men’s Basketball Student-Athletes Receive Post-Season Accolades

Named to the ICCAC First Team and nominated for All-American recognition is Shawn Fulcher. The freshman point guard from New York led the Panthers in scoring and was 2nd in the conference with his 16.8 ppg average.  Fulcher also tied for 4th in assists per game (3.4) and was 7th in steals with 50.

 

"Shawn proved to be the best one-on-one scorer in the country day in and day out all season long.  He was the only NJCAA DII player named as a top 50 freshman JUCO player in the country and had some huge games for us throughout the year.  He will have a busy off-season and I expect him to receive multiple NCAA DI offers by the end of the semester," said Bryan Bender, Head Men's Basketball Coach.

Dior Davis was named to the All-Tournament team and was 2nd Team All-Conference.  He started 29 games and averaged 14.3 points per contest.  "Dior was our most consistent player every game and filled the stat sheet.  He was 2nd on the team in scoring, led us in assists per game, led the conference in steals, and was 8th in the conference in blocked shots.  Dior played a huge part in changing our culture and represents our program very well off the floor with a 3.6 GPA as well.  He is another freshman on this year's roster expected to sign with an NCAA DI program and they will be very lucky to have him," coach Bender stated.

Issakha Niang was named All-Conference Honorable Mention.  "Issa was the nation's 3rd leading shot blocker and set a school record for blocks in a season with 83.  He obviously led the conference in that stat and was also one of the top rebounders in the conference. His ferocious dunks ignited our team all year and he is well deserving of this honor!" said coach Bender.
