Vanguard’s Scott lone Lion among All-GSAC players

Vanguard University sophomore point guard Greg Scott, who helped the Lions finish tied for third in the Golden State Athletic Conference men’s basketball regular season, has been named all-conference.

Scott, a 5-foot-10 floor leader, averaged 10.9 points, second best among Lions and a team-best 6.0 assists in the regular season, helping Vanguard finish 20-9, 13-7. Scott also chipped in 3.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals per contest, the latter a team-high.

Scott is one of only three sophomores on the 15-player unit.

Though the Lions finished tied for third, they are the No. 5 seed entering Thursday’s conference tournament quarterfinals. They will visit No. 4-seeded Point Loma Nazarene (22-8, 13-7) at 7:30 p.m. The semifinals are Saturday and the final is Tuesday.

Mark Roussin, a 6-7 junior at Cal Baptist, is the Player of the Year.

Justin Leslie, who guided Azusa Pacific to second place behind Concordia, is Coach of the Year.
