Marcus Domask Named NABC All-District Second Team

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – SIU freshman forward Marcus Domask was named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches All-District 16 Second Team, the organization announced Monday. Since 2005, Domask is the eighth Saluki to earn a spot on the All-District First or Second Team, and he is the first SIU freshman to earn an All-District nod.

Domask, the 2020 MVC Newcomer and Freshman of the Year, produced one of the great freshman seasons in Saluki history. His scoring average (13.7 ppg) ranks second all-time at SIU among freshmen only to Charlie Vaughn in 1959. Domask led all MVC freshmen in scoring and assists, and he ranked second in rebounds and third in steals. He scored in double-figures 22 times, including five 20+ point games, and had two double-doubles. A Waupun, Wis., native, Domask scored 28 points at Drake — the most by an MVC freshman in a league game since 2014 — to lead the Salukis to snapping Drake’s 15-game home court winning streak. He hit the game-winning jumper as time expired in SIU’s 68-66 win over Missouri State.

The team was selected and voted on by member coaches of the NABC in NCAA Division I. SIU had a player earn All-District honors for the sixth-straight season.
