Justin Taylor, the freshman point guard for the men’s basketball team, has been selected to Division II Bulletin’s all-freshman team for the 2006-07 season.
Taylor averaged 9.4 points and a team-high 3.1 assists while starting all but one game at the point guard position for the Miners this year. He had the top scoring game of the season with a 27-point effort at Kentucky Wesleyan and owned a 1.1-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio during the 2006-07 season.
One of 10 freshmen nationwide – and the only one from a Great Lakes Valley Conference school – selected to the squad by the national publication for basketball at the NCAA Division II level, Taylor was named GLVC’s “Freshman of the Year” following the season.
