(St. Louis, MO) — The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) announced the 2018-19 Men’s Basketball All-Americans on Thursday and Missouri Baptist senior Pablo Hernandez was named to the First Team. Fellow senior Kai Woodfall made the Honorable Mention list.
For Hernandez, the final accolade of his playing career caps off a historic four-year run. The native of Ames, Spain averaged 14.8 points per game in 2018-19 and led the Spartans to a program-record 28 wins, an AMC Regular Season title, and a berth in the NAIA Division I National Tournament. He was also named American Midwest Conference Player of the Year.
Hernandez also made his mark on the MBU career record book. The senior became the 18th player in program history to reach 1,000 points and finished 12th with 1,268 for his career.
Woodfall made a major impact in his lone year as a Spartan. The senior from Launceston, Australia averaged 13.6 ppg and made 104 three-pointers, ranking him No. 6 in DI NAIA.

Hey @KovCountdown this looks epic. We should have a watch party next year during camp!
Five @OVCSports openers tonight. @TTU_Basketball is playing its second conference game but nine other teams are opening league play. Biggest game of the night is @SIUEMBB @ @LRTrojans.
After Tuesday's big win by @DrakeBulldogsMB and @BradleyUMBB's significant victory last night, @BelmontMBB has a gigantic opportunity tonight against UC Irvine. Could be a banner @ValleyHoops week.
NAIA players have to get extra playing time to with the new court ruling right? The #portalpandemic lives.
