INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Concordia-St. Paul senior guard
Antwan Kimmons was named a Division II Conference Commissioners Association (D2CCA) First Team All-American, it was announced on Wednesday morning.
With the selection, Kimmons becomes the first D2CCA All-American in Concordia-St. Paul men's basketball history. The award comes just one day after Kimmons was named to the NABC All-America Team, also a program first.
Kimmons is one of two Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference representatives to earn D2CCA All-America honors, with Minot State junior Caleb Van De Griend also earning a First Team selection
Kimmons' 781 points this season are a program record, shattering his own record of 591 from the 2022-23 season. His 2024-25 scoring average of 25.2 points per game ranks fourth in all of Division II and is also the highest in a single season in CSP history. His 5.7 assists per game lead the NSIC and rank 12th in Division II.
Kimmons has been named the
National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC)/Division II Conference Information Directors Association (D2CIDA) Division II Player of the Week two times this season, and is the only Golden Bear in program history to earn the honor. He has also secured NSIC Player of the Week honors three times.
Earlier this month, Kimmons was named the D2CCA Central Region Player of the Year while also securing all-region honors. In late February, he was named the
NSIC Player of the Year and took home All-NSIC First Team honors for the second time in his career.
He has also been named to the top-25 watchlist for the Bevo Francis award, with the finalists scheduled to be revealed on April 5.
