MARSHALL, Texas – It's been 18 years since East Texas Baptist University men's basketball had a player considered for All-American status.
Darry Moore, a senior from Tyler, Texas, has been named a Preseason D3hoops.com All-American on the fourth team.
The last time ETBU had an All-American was Cedric Isom in 2005-06 by the NABC on the third team.
Moore is coming off his second year at ETBU where he was named the American Southwest Conference Tournament MVP, an All-ASC first-team selection, and on the D3hoops.com All-Region first team and the NABC All-Region second-team. He averaged 20.9 points and 6.9 rebounds per game shooting .623 from the floor and scored a career-high 34 points vs. Howard Payne on Feb. 11. He also surpassed 1,000 career points in the NCAA Tournament.
ETBU opens up their 2023-24 season on Sunday with an exhibition against NCAA Division II Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas.
