NABC Division III All-District Teams

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – For the third day in a row, junior center Andrew Powers of the Gettysburg College men's basketball team earned a postseason award, as he was named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Division III All-Middle Atlantic Region Second Team late Wednesday evening.

Powers, who was named NABC All-District for the second straight season after capturing first-team honors last year, was also named to the D3hoops.com All-Middle Atlantic Region Second Team on Monday and the Eastern College Athletic Conference Division III South Region Second Team on Tuesday.

This season Powers averaged 19.3 points per game to become just the second Centennial Conference scoring champion at Gettysburg and the first since Bill Davidson '00 in 2000 (18.2 ppg). He posted 12 games of scoring 20 or more points, including a season-high 30-point effort in a win at Washington (Md.) College and a 28-point outing in the Centennial Conference championship game at Franklin & Marshall College.

Currently the 53rd-leading scorer in Division III, he also finished sixth among the Centennial Conference leaders in field-goal percentage (52.0%), eighth in rebounding (6.8 rpg), and eighth in free-throw percentage (76.8%).

Powers helped Gettysburg finish 15-11 and 12-6 in the Centennial Conference, good for a second-place finish in the conference standings, en route to being named First Team All-Centennial Conference – his third straight all-conference selection. The Bullets went on to reach the conference championship game for the third year in a row, coming up just four points shy of 20th-ranked F&M in the title game.

For his career, Powers ranks sixth all-time at Gettysburg in scoring with 1,426 points. He is also second in free throws made (409) and attempted (548), sixth in steals (113), eighth in field goals made (495), and eighth in field-goal percentage (53.0%).

The NABC All-District Teams are selected and voted on by member coaches of the NABC.
