MVC and OVC Players on Mid-Major All-American Team

None Will Be Back Next Season

(St. Louis, MO) – Four Missouri Valley and two Ohio Valley Conference players have been named to the Lou Henson all-American team. These awards go to the top ‘mid-major’ players in college basketball. Drake’s Tucker DeVries, Southern Illinois’ Xavier Johnson and two Indiana State players (Robbie Avila and Isaiah Swope) are on this year’s team. 

Morehead State’s Riley Minix and UT Martin’s Jordan Sears are also on the Henson squad.

It is unlikely that any of them will be wearing the same jersey next season. Minix and Johnson graduated. DeVries has transferred to West Virginia to play for his father. Darian DeVries is the new Mountaineer head coach. Avila and Swope entered their names into the portal today and Sears did the same over a week ago.

Also honored is former Missouri State and current San Francisco forward Jonathan Mogbo.

Flooding, lightning strikes, etc. have cost @RacersHoops two home games. Had to play 'neutral site' tonight instead of at home and Wednesday's goes from home to away. Tough break for the Racers, and the whole area has been hit with difficulties. #FatherHarry

Murray State's scheduled home game Wednesday vs. Southern Illinois being moved to Banterra Center in Carbondale. #ValleyHoops

Gigantic game for @BradleyUMBB today in Des Moines. If they have a chance to catch @DrakeBulldogsMB, they have to win today. The Bulldogs can basically win the title today. @BustingBrackets breaks it all down. #FatherHarry https://bit.ly/3EGiVgi

Not rooting for any particular @ValleyHoops, but chaos is always fun. If things break certain ways, after today there could be a six-way tie for fifth place.
