Skyler Bowlin named first-team NABC All-District/Jason Adams second team

Kansas City, Mo. -- Missouri Southern senior point guard Skyler Bowlin can add another accomplishment to the list that is already large as he has been named first-team All-District by the National Association of Basketball Coaches. 

Bowlin is one of four representatives from the MIAA on the first team and Jason Adams is one of two MIAA reps on the second team. 

Bowlin was a first-team member of the Daktronics All-Region team, while being named the Region Player of the Year. He was a unanimous selection to be the MIAA's Player of the Year, as well as repeating as MIAA Defensive Player of the Year, sharing that title with FHSU's Dijon Smith. He was named to his fourth-straight MIAA All-Defensive Team and was a member of the 2011 MIAA All-Tournament team. 

The Lions' all-time leader in three pointers with 224, while his 1,664 career points rank him fourth all-time. His 568 assists and 265 steals rank 3rd & 2nd all-time and free-throw percentage of .830 ranks second all-time. He led the MIAA in steals and ranks 19th in d-2, while ranking 2nd in the MIAA in assists and 13th in d-2 in that category.

Adams had the tenth-best scoring season all-time this year at Southern, scoring 596 points this year, while averaging 19.2 and ranking third in the MIAA in scoring. He has risen to No. 6 all-time in scoring at Southern, passing Matt Olsen with 1,425 career points. 

Both Bowlin and Adams are now eligible for the State Farm NABC All-American Team, which will be released at the Elite Eight next week.
