Anderson University men's basketball senior Maurice Knight has been selected to the 2022 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC)-Reese's Division III All-Star Game, which was announced by the NABC on Monday.

"I am thrilled for Maurice to receive this invitation; he is immensely deserving," Coach Owen Handy said. "He's been a terrific basketball player for us, able to dominate games at both ends of the floor."

The Division III All-Star Game is scheduled for Saturday at 3 p.m. at Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne. It includes the top senior talent in Division III. Rosters include representation from each region.

Knight scored 20.0 points per game, which ranks second in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC). Among conference leaders, Knight also ranks third in blocking (1.04) and fourth in rebounding (7.8). The 6-foot-4 senior wing from Frankton put together 2.4 assists per game and 1.2 steals per game.

Knight was tabbed as the HCAC Player of the Year and the HCAC Defensive Player of the Year. He was selected as HCAC Athlete of the Week five times this season, which is tied for the most single-season selections by a men's basketball player in conference history. Knight was also named to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week this season.
