Sophomore is fourth Bronco to earn first-team All-Mountain West honors from both the coaches and the media
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Sophomore forward Tyson Degenhart earned first-team All-Mountain West honors to lead three Broncos on the all-conference teams, the league announced on Tuesday ahead of the 2023 Mountain West Tournament.
Degenhart is one of four Broncos to earn first-team honors from both the media and the coaches since the Mountain West split voting. The Spokane, Wash., native joins the likes of James Webb III (2016), Chandler Hutchison (2018) and Derrick Alston, Jr. (2021).
Max Rice was named to the All-Mountain West second team, and Marcus Shaver, Jr., was named to the third team.
Degenhart is averaging 15.1 points per game on 59.3% shooting from the field in conference play. His 5.2 rebounds per game in Mountain West games is second on the team, while his 31 assists are third on the squad. Degenhart has nine games with at least 10 points and five rebounds in conference play to go along with a pair of double doubles.
Rice is averaging 15.9 points per game in conference play with four 20-point games against Mountain West opponents. The redshirt senior is averaging a career-high 35.1 minutes per game and is shooting 45.9% from the field. Rice is one of two players in the Mountain West to shoot 45.5% from three with at least 46 makes in conference play.
This is the first season Rice has been named to an all-conference team.
Shaver concludes his career with third-team All-Mountain West honors after being named to the second team last season. The fifth-year guard is averaging 12.5 points per game, 5.1 rebounds per game and leads Boise State in assists (61) and steals (21) in Mountain West games.
