Dinkins selected as Second Team All Star for Second Straight Year

The OUA has announced their major award winners and All-Star team selections for men’s basketball.

For the second straight year, Bacarius Dinkins has been selected as an OUA second-team all-star.

“For Bacarius to average 16 points and 10 rebounds in the OUA says a lot about his abilities. He’s probably one of the most electric and explosive posts in the U SPORTS and he plays a lot bigger then his 6’4 frame.” – Coach Furtado

Bacarius Dinkins (Jonesville, Florida), graduating in Sociology,  has posed as a huge challenge to all teams across the OUA and U SPORTS with his ability to get to the basketball along side a solid jump shot. With athleticism and power, Bacarius ranks 3rd in the OUA for the most total rebounds and rebounds per game. Dinkins is also 5th in the league for most blocks.

Dinkins best performance of the year came during the Thunderwolves 79-75 victory over York, putting up 23 points. Dinkins was also huge in the Thunderwolves Playoff game against Toronto with 17 points, 10 rebounds.
