Suwanee, Ga. – Junior Guard Taylor Meades was named to the 2011-12 All-SCAC Basketball Team on Saturday afternoon at the SCAC Tournament. The junior sharpshooter led the team in points and three point shooting (min. 30 attempts) during the season.
In exclusive voting by all SCAC coaches, Meades play on the court led Millsaps throughout the season. Meades led Millsaps as he averaged 12.3 points a game while shooting 40% from the field.
The junior really shined from behind the arch as he shot 37% including 52 three pointers made on the season. He was also one of the top free throw shooters for the Majors as he was 72% from the line, second on the team.
One of Meades biggest moments this year was on January 27th against Southwestern where he buried a three with less then four seconds remaining to lift the Majors to a road victory over the Pirates, 65-64. He also scored 20 or more points twice this season against Dallas (23) and Trinity (23).
Meades returns next season as one of the senior leaders as he looks to turn Millsaps around and bring them back to the SCAC Tournament.
