Shockers earn AAC accolades before postseason berth

The men’s basketball program earned several conference accolades after posting their worst regular season record since the Shockers joined the American Athletic Conference in 2017.

Junior Tyson Eitienne followed in the footsteps of his pre-season accolades after being named Third Team all Conference this season.

Junior Dexter Dennis was named AAC Defensive Player of the Year. Dennis guarded the 1-4 spots throughout the season and had 24 blocks and 23 steals total this season.

When Dennis started his career at WSU, he and his teammates were told by former Head Coach Greg Marshall that they needed to find another way to contribute to the team if they weren’t going to be significant contributors on offense.
