Miller Named To NABC All-District Second Team

ITHACA, N.Y. -- Cornell senior forward Shonn Miller has been named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District second team it was announced today. Miller was one of five Ivy League players named to the District 13 squad. The teams were selected by the member coaches of the NABC.

Miller joined Yale's Javier Duren on the second team, while Harvard forward Wesley Saunders, Columbia guard Maodo Lo and Yale forward Justin Sears captured first-team accolades. He is the 17th all-district selection in school history and the first since Jeff Foote '10 and Ryan Wittman '10 were named to the first team and Louis Dale '10 was a second-team member in 2010.

Miller ranked second in the Ivy League in scoring (16.8 ppg.), rebounding (8.5 rpg.) and free-throw percentage (.834) and among the top 10 in blocks (fourth, 1.8) and steals (eighth, 1.3) en route to earning unanimous first-team all-league honors. The conference's leader in defensive rebounds, he ranked sixth nationally (7.53 per game). Overall, he ranks in the top 100 nationally in 11 different categories.

A two-time Ivy League Player of the Week, Miller recorded 11 double-doubles on the season and matched a school record with 18 in his three-year career. Miller became the school's seventh player to reach 500 points in a season with his 505 as a season. He became the first player to score 500 points and register 250 rebounds in a season, and also became the first Cornellian and fifth Ivy player to record 1,000 points, 600 rebounds, 100 blocks and 100 steals in a career.

Miller closed his Cornell career with a flourish, scoring at least 23 points in four of his final five games and averaging 22.0 points and 9.8 rebounds per game over that span. He had three different games of at least 15 rebounds and 12 games with at least 20 points.

In just three seasons, Miller did his best making his mark on the school's record book. He sits in the top 20 all-time in scoring (19th, 1,065), rebounding (14th, 608), steals (11th, 126), blocked shots (fourth, 154), free throws made (13th, 266) and free-throw percentage (18th. .785).

With Miller back in the lineup, Cornell became one of the nation's most improved team. The Big Red improved by a school record 11 wins, improving from two wins to a 13-17 finish that included fifth place in the conference after being picked to place last in the preseason.
