Behrend's Kaiser and Potter Tabbed to AMCC All-Conference Team
Penn State Behrend men's basketball juniors
Adam Kaiser
(Erie/Cathedral Prep) and Adam Potter (Pittsburgh/Mt. Lebanon) were named to
the AMCC All-Conference team for their play this season for the Behrend
Lions. Kaiser was named to the first team while Potter was a second
team selection. This marks the first time these players have been
named to the All-Conference teams.
Kaiser has had an outstanding junior campaign for the blue and white. He is second to Potter in total points with 350 and leads the team in scoring with 13.5 ppg. Shooting the 3-pointer has been Kaiser's trademark all year long as he led the AMCC in 3-point field goals made with 80 and averages 3.20 a game. He was fourth in the AMCC in 3-point shooting percentage at 42% and shoots the same from the field. Kaiser was a big reason to the Behrend Lions finishing first as a team in 3-point field goal percentage.
Potter was a workhorse down low for the Behrend Lions. He leads the team in total
points with
356 and is second to Kaiser in average with 13.2 ppg. Potter leads the
team in rebounds with 158 and averages 5.9 rpg. He is shooting 51%
from the field and 68% from the charity stripe. Potter has scored in
double-figures in 17 of the 27 games and has started every game this season
for the Behrend Lions.
The blue and white finished the regular season one game behind Medaille for
the regular season title. The Behrend Lions would be knocked out in
the semi-final round of the AMCC tournament.
The blue and white would be selected as a number four seed in
the ECAC South Tournament. Behrend would win its opening game 73-69
over Bethany. The blue and white will now travel to #1
seed Cabrini to play in the semifinals on Saturday, March 7. Behrend
and Cabrini will battle at 3:00 p.m. with the other semifinal (#2 Catholic
vs. #6 W & J) set to begin at 1:00 p.m.
