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.

Playing the point at @UEAthletics_MBB is @EKUHoops transfer Tayshawn Comer. The @ValleyHoops squad opens its season on Tuesday, but we wanted to get to know Comer now. Here is our conversation. #ValleyRunsDeep #NCAAHoops

Graphic from @NateSilver538. As a 'news watcher' this is one of the most fascinating elections to watch. I don't truly like either candidate, so that makes it less exciting, but as a 'news oriented' person, this is incredible theater.
