Collier, Macoy named to 2019 NABC Honors Court

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Auburn basketball rising seniors Thomas Collier and Will Macoy were selected to the 2019 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Honors Court, the organization announced.

The award recognizes men's collegiate basketball student-athletes who excelled in academics during the past season.

In order to be eligible for the Honors Court, a student-athlete must meet a high standard of academic criteria. The student-athlete must be academically a junior or senior, hold a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher at the conclusion of the academic year, matriculate at least one year at their current institution and be a member of a NCAA Division I, II, III or NAIA Division I or II institution with a NABC member coach.

Auburn’s honorees tied for the most in the Southeastern Conference with Missouri, who also had two.

Collier earned recognition while working towards a degree from the Harbert College of Business, while Macoy was tabbed for his efforts in progressing towards a degree from the Ginn College of Engineering.

Collier appeared in eight games off the bench during the 2018-19 season. The Birmingham, Ala. native saw action in a pair of SEC home tilts vs. Missouri (Jan. 30) and Florida (Feb. 5). Collier was also tabbed to the SEC Academic Honor Roll.

Macoy played in 12 games during last season’s record-setting campaign, including six in SEC and postseason play. He earned a scholarship in the locker room following a 93-78 victory over Georgia (Jan. 12). The fellow Birmingham, Ala. native joined Collier on the SEC Academic Honor Roll.
