University of Evansville senior Egidijus Mockevicius is set to play in the 2016 Reese’s Division I College All-Star game, which will be held at the Final Four in Houston this weekend.
First, D.J. Balentine captured the scoring title, and now Big E (Egidijus Mockevicius) is the all-time leading rebounder for the University of Evansville. Mockevicius set the record when he pulled down his 1,198th career rebound in Tuesday's 67-55 win over Bradley.
The University of Evansville Purple Aces are having an amazing season. It is so fun to watch them play, both at the Ford Center and on TV. It is also really exciting to hear such positive comments for two players in particular...D.J. Balentine and Egidijus Mockevicius.
The leading rebounder in the nation has also been picking up the weekly honors at a solid pace as University of Evansville center Egidijus Mockevicius has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Week for the third time this season.
