BOCA RATON, Fla. - Florida Atlantic University men's basketball player
Everett Winchester has been named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Honors Court, the organization announced on Wednesday.
"I am incredibly thankful and blessed to receive this recognition," said Winchester. "I would like to thank both the coaching staff and the academic advisors at FAU for their support and encouragement in being the best I can be academically."
Winchester, a spring 2020 graduate with a degree in communication studies, transferred to FAU from Wright State in the summer of 2018. After sitting out the 2018-19 season due to transfer regulations, he appeared in 17 games, averaging 4.1 points and was part of FAU's second straight winning season, something the Owls had not done since 1996-97.
To be eligible for the Honors Court, a student-athlete must be at least a junior academically, hold a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.2, and must have spent at least a full calendar year at their current institution.
