DANBURY, Conn. – Blue Hen guard Nate Darling earned his second award this week as the junior was named to the All-Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) second team on Thursday.
Darling, who has already collected first team All-CAA, USBWA All-District and NABC All-District honors this month, was one of six players selected to the All-ECAC second team. He was joined by Desure Buie of Hofstra, Deion Hammond of Monmouth, E.J. Anosike of Sacred Heart, Zach Cooks of NJIT and Joe Pridgen of Holy Cross.
The All-ECAC first team consisted of Paul Atkinson of Yale, Raiquan Clark of LIU, Elijah Hughes of Syracuse, Jalen Pickett of Siena and Isiah Blackmon of Saint Francis.
Darling averaged 21.0 points per game this season, which ranked third in the CAA, 18th in Division I and sixth in a UD single season. He scored 672 points this year, third most in a UD single season and seven shy of the school record of 679 held by Usher.
Darling set a Blue Hen record by hitting 107 three-pointers this season, sixth most in the nation. His 3.34 three-pointers per game ranked eighth in the country and his 39.9 three-point percentage ranked 28th.
Darling reached the 20-point mark 17 times on the year, and became the second Blue Hen to post four games of at least 34 points in a season. He led Delaware in scoring in 23 of the 32 games in which he appeared, and scored a career-high 37 points during the win over UTSA on Nov. 10.
