| NAIA All American Honorable Mention Devin Andrew |
Andrew — a 6-foot-4 senior guard from Harvey, La., a graduate of Vandebilt Catholic High School in Houma and a former student at Karr High School in New Orleans — led the Gold Rush this season with 10.9 points per game, 1.2 steals per game and 111 free throws in 147 attempts. He won two January home games with points in the final two seconds.
He helped the Gold Rush finish 27-6 this season — the most victories by an XU men's team since 1983-84 — finish second in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference Tournament and earn an at-large bid to the Buffalo Funds-NAIA Division I National Championship. Andrew
scored 946 points and made 77.3 percent of his free throws in 113 games during four seasons.
Andrew was one of four from the GCAC to be honored. Tougaloo's Marquise Mems made the first team, and SUNO's Brent Leduff and Tougaloo's Mario Luckett received honorable mention.
