Long Beach State sophomore T.J. Robinson has been named National Association of Basketball Coaches (NACDA) Second Team All-District 9 in a vote of member coaches. Robinson is one of 240 student athletes, from the 24 districts, to be honored as an all-district pick.
Robinson (St. Thomas More Prep/West Haven. Conn.) earned second-team recognition after leading Long Beach State in scoring (15.4 ppg) and rebounding (10.1 ppg). He finished the regular season as just one of a handful of Division I players to average a double-double, while leading the Big West with 17 double-doubles. The 49er forward scored more than 20 points seven times during the season, while finishing with 30 double-digit scoring games and 17 double-digit rebounding games. He also led the Big West Conference in rebounding and field goal percentage (.520), while finishing eighth in scoring. Robinson ranks in the top 20 in the country in both rebounds per game and double-doubles. His 332 rebounds were the third most ever by a 49er and the most since the 1960-61 season, while his 216 free throw attempts are the most in school history. He also earned first-team All-Big West Conference honors and was a member of the Big West Conference All-Tournament Team.
