BURNS, BOSTON, ACHIEVE RECOGNITION ON ALL-AMERICAN TEAMS

Two members of the top NJCAA Division II national team have achieved additional preseason recognition.

Robert Burns was selected to the preseason First Team All American squad and Armon Boston was named a Second Team All American in the preseason listing.

Burns, a 6’5” forward from Milwaukee Wisc., is in his second year with Coach Troy Larson.  Burns prepped at Custer High School.  In his first season at Iowa Lakes, he averaged 14.5 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, shooting 48% from the field and 65% from the free throw line.

Also from Milwaukee, is Armon Boston, a 6’1” guard who prepped at Vincent High School.  He averaged 12.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2 assists during his freshman year as a Laker, shooting 50% from the floor and 73% from the charity stripe.

“It is an honor to have Robert and Armon named to the Preseason All American Teams,” said Head Coach Troy Larson.  “It is a result of them having very good freshman seasons.  Both are good young men and I really enjoy coaching them.”

Iowa Lakes is currently 1 – 0 on the season and just last week found out they are ranked #1 in the nation in the NJCAA division II national poll.
