by For the second year in a row, Colorado College’s CooXooEii Black (Northern Arapaho) earned all-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference honors in a ballot of the league’s head coaches.
Black, who was named to the first team, earned all-conference honors for the third year in a row. He joined Ryan Milne (2010-14), Chris Lesnansky (2012-15) and Eric Houska (2015-18) as the program’s only players with three or more all-conference awards. Acosta earned a spot on the third-team after scoring honorable-mention accolades a year ago.
The 2020 all-conference teams were introduced on Saturday afternoon at the 2020 SCAC Championships in Kerrville, Texas.
Black led the SCAC in scoring, averaging 21.3 points per game during the regular season. The senior forward also was second with a .543 field-goal percentage and fourth in rebounding at 8.8 per contest.
Black finished the season with a career-high 512 points to become the 16th player in school history to score 500 or more in a single season.
During his last home game, the 75-52 victory over Trinity University, Black became just the fourth player in conference history to record 1,500 or more career points and 700 or more career rebounds.
With 31 points at Southwestern University on Feb. 21, Black became the fifth player in program history and just the ninth in the SCAC to reach the 1,600-point mark. He ended his career with 1,625.
