Black Hills State men's basketball senior, Joel Scott, was named NABC South Central Region All-District First Team Monday morning.
 
Scott continues to haul in accolades as one of the top players in the nation, with NABC honors being the latest add to the list.
 
Scott is earning NABC All-Region First Team for the second straight year, after having already twice earned D2CCA All-Region First Team and RMAC Player of the Year. He was also recently named on the 2023 Bevo Francis Top-25 Watch List.
 
Scott is currently the third-leading scorer in the RMAC, averaging 22.8 points per game and 752 total points, 25 away from matching his points total from last season that set a program record. Scott also leads the RMAC in rebounding with 9.7 per game and 319 total rebounds.

Nationally, Scott ranks first in defensive rebounds per game (7.91) while he also ranks eighth in points and 15th in rebounds per game. Additionally, his 15 double-doubles this season ranks fifth in the nation.

Now currently with 2,404 career total points, Scott recently cemented himself as the BHSU men's basketball all-time leading scorer and is also the third Yellow Jacket to join the 2,000-point club.

NABC All-District honors are voted on by NABC-member coaches across NCAA Division II.
