The OUA has announced their major award winners and All-Star team selections for men’s basketball.
For Lakehead, Bacarius Dinkins, of Jonesville Florida and Henry Tan, of Vaughan, Ontario were both selected to the Second All-Star team.
Dinkins played just under 30 minutes/game this season, putting up averages of 17 points and 8 rebounds per game, which ranked him 10th and 5th, respectively, in the OUA. Dinkins’ best performance of the year came against the McMaster Marauders on January 29, when he scored 27 points with 15 rebounds. He also proved his prowess in the playoffs, scoring 10 straight points in the opening quarter, and 25 total against Ryerson in the ‘Wolves playoff farewell last weekend.
