KANSAS CITY, Mo.- Senior center Dan Holbrook (Lexington, Mass.) of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth men's basketball team has received another prestigious honor.

Holbrook has been named a second team State Farm Division III All-American by the National Association of Basketball Coaches. In receiving the award, Holbrook becomes the fourth Corsair to be so honored, joining Kevin Kolek, who was honored in 1989, Waldemar Sender, who received the award in 1991, and Steve Haynes, who was honored in both 1992 and 1993.

Holbrook was earlier named first team State Farm All-Northeast Region by the NABC, as well as first team All-Northeast Region by D3hoops.com. He led the Little East Conference in rebounding (10.9 rebounds per game), while ranking second in scoring (16.4 points per game), fourth in field goal percentage (.556), and eighth in assists (2.79 assists per game). He had 13 double doubles in 28 games, including a pair in the final two games of the 2008 Little East Conference Tournament. He scored at least 20 points eight times, with a career high of 32 at UMass Boston February 19th. Holbrook was thrice named LEC Player of the Week and was the only Corsair so honored during the 2007-08 season.

"It's a great honor and an outstanding accomplishment," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Dan Holbrook. "When Danny was named Little East Conference Player of the Year, I knew he would be in the running for these awards. It's a nice surprise and a great honor."

The Corsairs finished first in the LEC during the regular season, advanced to the second round of the NCAA Division III Championships, and had an overall record of 25-4.
