AP Names House Honorable Mention All-American
Apr 05, 2016 | Men's Basketball
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — After helping lead the Aggies to the program's first conference championship since 1986 as well as a trip to the Sweet 16, Texas A&M senior Danuel House has been named as an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press.
House becomes the eighth Aggie all-time to garner All-America recognition as well as the first since Acie Law IV stood out as a consensus first-team selection following the 2006-07 campaign.
This season, House led the Aggies and ranked among the SEC leaders with a 15.6 point-per-game average while shooting 39.6 percent from the floor and compiling 77 assists, 19 steals and 11 blocked shots. The 6-foot-7 shooting guard hit the 20-point plateau nine times, a figure that was highlighted by a career-best 32 point outburst against No. 16 Kentucky during the title game of the SEC Tournament to garner a spot on the All-SEC Tournament Team.
The Fresno, Texas, native was honored with a spot on the U.S. Basketball Writers All-District VII Team as well as being named a second-team All-District 21 performer by the National Association of Basketball Coaches for the second straight season.
House joined forces with fellow senior Jalen Jones to score a combined 1,067 points this season and become the fifth-highest scoring pair of Aggie teammates.
