Arango, Sencanski picked for men's basketball preseason honors



ACU's Dejan Sencanski

Two Lone Star Conference men's basketball stars were honored Wednesday as LSC officials announced the league's Preseason Players of the Year for 2008-09.

      Northeastern State senior guard Aaron Arango was named the North Division Preseason Player of the Year, while Abilene Christian senior forward Dejan Sencanski garnered South Division Preseason Player of the Year honors.

      The league's preseason awards were selected by a vote of LSC head coaches and sports information directors, plus various media representatives from throughout the region.

      Arango received five of the 16 votes in the North, while Sencanski was the top choice on six of the 18 ballots in the South.

      A second team All-LSC pick, Arango averaged 12.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game last season.  He led the RiverHawks in scoring in 13 of 28 games, to help NSU earn the third seed in the LSC Championship.

      Sencanski, was named first team all-LSC for his role in the Wildcats 20-9 overall record and first berth in the LSC Championship since 1998.  He finished sixth in the LSC in scoring (18 points), fifth in field goal percentage (.560), second in free throw percentage (.859) and second in three-point field goal percentage (.432).

      These two players will guide their teams on to the court in mid-November when the 2008-09 season begins.  The LSC has 14 teams - seven each in the North and South Divisions - ready to play this winter, with each team playing a home-and-home divisional schedule plus a single round of crossover games against teams from the opposite division.

      Other LSC players to watch this fall, according to voters, include Central Oklahoma's Lance Harper, Cameron's Greg Morgan, East Central's Ian Adams, Tarleton State's Eric Williams, Midwestern State's Nolan Richardson and Texas A&M-Kingsville's Wendell Mulkey.  Each player received more than one vote in the preseason balloting.
