DURHAM, N.C. – The honors continue to roll in for the 2013-14 MEAC (Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) Regular Season and Tournament Champions as North Carolina Central University’s Jeremy Ingram of the men’s basketball program has been named to the Lou Henson All-America Team for his performance during his senior season.

By virtue of earning a spot on the team, Ingram is now a finalist for the Lou Henson award, which is presented annually to the top Mid-Major player in NCAA Division I college basketball.  The award is in honor of Lou Henson, who retired after a spectacular coaching career that lasted 41 years.

When he left the game in 2005 he was sixth all-time in career Division I wins with 779. He is the winningest coach at both Illinois and New Mexico State. He is one of only 12 coaches in the history of the game to take two schools to the Final Four.

The 2013-14 MEAC Player of the Year and MEAC Tournament Most Outstanding Player ended the season 17th in the country in scoring averaging 20.6 points per game, but Ingram took his game to a whole new level in four postseason games averaging 28.0 points per contest, which is seventh in the nation in that category.

Ingram ended his Eagle career with 1,525 points which tied him with David Binion (1978-81, 1982-83) for sixth all-time at NCCU.  Ingram broke the single season record of free throws made with 216, and he is No. 1 all-time in free-throws made in a career with 437.  The Charlotte, N.C. product also finished third all-time with 170 three-pointers made in four seasons.

The winner of the 2014 Henson award will be announced at the CollegeInsider.com Awards Banquet on April 4 in Dallas, site of the Division I Men's Basketball Championship.
