TROY, Ala. - Junior Efe Odigie was named Newcomer of the Year and All-Sun Belt First Team, while freshman Duke Deen claims Freshman of the Year, the Sun Belt Conference announced Monday.
All-Sun Belt First Team & Newcomer of the Year
Odigie became the first Trojan to receive an All-Sun Belt First Team nod since the 2016-17 season (Jordon Varnado), averaging 11.6 points and 6.5 rebounds in 28 games.
"Efe has given us a dominant inside presence all year long. In my opinion, he is the best low-post player in the league," head coach Scott Cross said.
