SALT LAKE CITY – Utah men's basketball guards
Terrence Brown and
Don McHenry earned CSC Academic All-District honors on Tuesday the association announced.
The pair are the first to receive the honor since Ben Carlson did so at the conclusion of the 2023-24 campaign and just the fifth and sixth Utes to do so since 2001-02. Brown and McHenry are also the first pair to garner the award in the same year for Utah dating back to records in 2001-02.
Brown led the team this past season in points (19.9ppg), assists (3.8apg) and steals (44). His 636 points on the season ranks No. 11 on the all-time single-season list. Meanwhile, McHenry was second on the team in scoring (17.0ppg) while leading the team in 3-point field-goals made (78) and free-throw percentage (.835).
ELIGIBILITY CRITERION
Academic eligibility:
- An undergraduate student-athlete must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale).
- A graduate student-athlete must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) as both an undergraduate and a grad student unless they are in their first semester as a graduate student and don't have an established graduate GPA.
- The cumulative grade point average may not be rounded up to 3.50.
- First-semester transfers: See the information, below, for how to submit their GPA.
Academic standing:
- Student-athletes must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically.
- Nominee must be enrolled at their institution at the time of nomination as either an undergraduate or graduate student. Only the school at which an athlete competed in the current academic year can nominate that player.
- Student-athletes who have graduated from their own institution during the current academic year and are not competing in athletics at another institution at the time of nomination are eligible.
- Transfer student-athletes are immediately eligible. If your transfer student-athletes (undergraduates or graduates) are in their first semester at your institution, you must use their cumulative undergraduate GPA and cumulative graduate GPA (if grad GPA is applicable) from their former institution — which meets the 3.50 cumulative GPA — to be considered for Academic All-District/Academic All-America status. This would be the GPA or GPAs they used when gaining admittance to your institution. If your transfer student-athlete has a GPA at your institution, then you take the COMBINED cumulative GPA (from all institutions) and use that in your nomination process. (You cannot just select their GPA at your institution to date.)
Athletic Standing:
- Student-athletes must compete in 90 percent of the institution's games played OR must start in at least 66 percent of the institution's games
