For all the points he’s scored this season, senior
guard Marquez Haynes got a little more recognition on Tuesday.
Haynes was named the
Southland Conference Player
of the Year by a combined vote
of the conference’s men’s basketball coaches and sports information directors.
Haynes is the second UT
Arlington player and the first
since Albert Culton received
the honor in 1982.
Haynes originally thought
Athletics Director Pete Carlon
was joking when he told him
of the award.
“Earlier in the week, the team told me Clavell
won it,” Haynes said.
“But what they saw was some
newspaper wrote who they thought was going to
win it.
So when he told me, I was like ‘No, I didn’t.
’ ”
Haynes ranks third in the nation and leads the
SLC, averaging 22.
8 points per game.
His 661
points this season are a school record.
