Forward Jordan Cooper ’18 was named the D3hoops.com All-Northeast Rookie of the Year yesterday, two weeks after being named University Athletic Association Co-Rookie of the Year.

The D3hoops.com All-Region teams are named from 711 nominated players nationwide, according to the website, made up of the nominations of various sports information directors across the country. 

Cooper started in 21 of the Judges’ 25 games this season and made appearances in the other four. Cooper was the squad's leading scorer, averaging 12.4 points per game for a 33.7 shooting percentage.

The forward registered a season-high 27 points during an 83-81 loss to Case Western Reserve University on Jan. 18, going 8-of-15 from the field and 8-of-10 from the charity stripe. 

Cooper also added a trio of threes during the home contest and was second on the team during the entire season with 30 three-pointers.

Cooper registered double-digit scoring in 13 of his 21 starts and another three times in appearances off the bench and averaged 22.9 minutes per game, just fourth overall on the squad.

Cooper also managed to pull down just over three rebounds per game and notched a season-high eight rebounds in the loss to Case.

Cooper was the backbone of a Judges’ offense that averaged 62.5 points per game during the past season.

He was the first Judge to win the award since Florian Rexhepi ’08 won it back in 2005. 

This season marks the 14th year D3hoops.com has named All-Region teams.
