CSC ACADEMIC ALL-DISTRICT RELEASE
The CSC Academic All-America program recognizes men's basketball honorees in four divisions – NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA. Academic All-District® honorees advance to the CSC Academic All-America® ballot, where first, second, and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced in mid-March following a vote of CSC members. Academic All-District® nominees should be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average, with graduate students needing to have a 3.50 GPA at both the graduate and undergraduate levels.
Zegarowski, a member of the 2022-23 and 2023-24 All-Northeast Conference Third teams, started and played in 30 games this season for the Skyhawks. The 6'8 forward paced the team with averages of 12.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 34.7 minutes per game. His 1.8 assists per game and 59 made three-pointers ranked second on the team.
Zegarowski was the most efficient Skyhawk from the charity stripe, making 56 of 72 attempts, good for a team-best 77.8% clip. The grad student topped the scoring column in 11 games for the Skyhawks while being the team's leading rebounder in 10 games this year.
Zegarowski improved on his 3.68 undergraduate grade point average from Franklin Pierce University, finishing his master's in business administration (M.B.A.) in Integrated Marking Communications with a 3.71 GPA in his two years at Stonehill. This is his second straight winter being named to the CSC Academic All-District Team. He is one of six honorees in program history and the lone Skyhawk to earn the accolade at the Division I level.
Zegarowski finished the season with conference ranks of 12th in scoring, tied for 16th in rebounding, sixth in three-pointers made per game (2.0), and second in minutes. Despite Stonehill posting a 2-14 record in league play, Zegarowski's numbers were even better, averaging 12.9ppg, 5.4rpg, 2.4apg, and 36.4mpg during NEC action.
