MEMPHIS, Tenn. – A pair of Memphis Tigers earned First Team All-American Athletic Conference honors and the league's head coaches tabbed the Tigers to finish second, when the conference office announced its Preseason awards Wednesday morning at the annual Media Day.
In the preseason coaches poll, the Tigers picked up one first-place vote and had 87 total points, trailing only defending AAC champion and 2022 Elite Eight participant Houston's 10 first-place nods and 100 total points.
Reigning AAC Player of the Year Kendric Davis and senior DeAndre Williams both earned first team recognition, making Memphis the only program with a duo on the top team.
