University of Southern Indiana Men’s Basketball senior guard Alex Stein (Evansville, Indiana) has been selected Division II Bulletin honorable mention All-America.

A Division Conference Commissioner’s Association honorable mention All-America selection last month, Stein is collecting post-season All-America honors for the second-straight season after garnering honorable mention All-America honors by Division II Bulletin as a junior in 2018. He is the 23rd player in program history to earn All-America honors.

Stein, who became the USI all-time leading scorer with 2,219 career points during the NCAA II Elite Eight semifinals, led the Screaming Eagles with 20.9 points per game (a career high) in addition to averaging 3.9 rebounds (a career high), and 2.8 assists per contest. He also ranks second in the GLVC, 34th nationally, in scoring and first in the league, fourth nationally, in free throws made.

The three-time first-team All-GLVC performer finishes his career averaging 17.6 points per game, 3.5 rebounds, and 3.1 assists in 126 games and starts. Stein started every game for USI through his four seasons.

In addition to the All-America, All-District, and All-Region awards this year, Stein was named third-team Google Cloud Academic All-America by the College Sports Information Directors; first-team All-Great Lakes Valley Conference; NCAA II Elite Eight All-Tournament; NCAA II Midwest Regional Most Outstanding Player; and GLVC All-Tournament.
