Mustapha Heron Tabbed Preseason All-SEC
AUBURN, Ala. - The Southeastern Conference coaches have selected Mustapha Heron as a Preseason All-SEC selection. Heron was one of 10 to land on the second team.
Entering his second season, Heron put together a stellar freshman campaign a year ago. The sophomore earned a spot on the Freshman All-SEC team, becoming the first Tiger to do so since DeWayne Reed in 2007.
Heron was also one of 20 in the country tabbed to the Jerry West Award watch list, given annually to the nation's top shooting guard.
The Waterbury, Conn. native broke the Auburn freshman record by scoring in double figures in his first 25 games of the season, smashing the previous best held by Wesley Person (14) in 1990-91.
