On Tuesday, Cincinnati Christian University announced that junior Blake Walsman has been named to the NAIA All-American Second Team, NCCAA All-American Third Team, and NCCAA All-Midwest Region First Team.

This season, Walsman averaged 21.4 points per game and led the nation in rebounding at 14.3 a contest. Walsman’s rebounding prowess was off the charts this past season, tallying 20-plus rebounds in seven games.
