CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Dallas College North Lake men's basketball's Jakob Zenon was named a National Junior College Athletic Association Division III First Team All-American.

A 6-foot-4 sophomore shooting guard from Fort Worth, Zenon averaged 18.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and a steal per game, while shooting 48 percent from the field, 41.5 percent from three-point range and 87 percent from the free throw line. He scored in double figures in 29 of the 33 games, dropping a career-high 36 points on a career-best 10 of 17 triples in a victory at Dallas College Mountain View Feb. 17. Zenon had 33 points in the season-opening win at NJCAA Division I Three Rivers Community College. He scored 20 or more points in 16 games.

Zenon was named the Dallas Athletic Conference Most Valuable Player, and was named to the NJCAA Division III All-Tournament Team as the Blazers capped off a 29-4 season with a junior college men's basketball record fifth national championship.
