Pilots' Fredericko Payne is Named First Team All-American

April 06, 2005

Payne, the leading scorer in the nation, averaged 25 points per game, while leading the Pilots to a 27-9 record and a first ever trip to the NAIA National Tournament, in which they lost in the Sweet Sixteen to the eventual national champions, John Brown. This season he broke the 1,500 point mark for his career at LSUS in only two years with the school. He ended the year third in the country in steals, with 3 a game.  "If it wasn't for my teammates and coaches none of this would be possible.  I have some of the best teammates, who understand me and understand each other. We play together so well, and we can't wait for next year," commented Payne. Payne, who was Honorable Mention All-American last year, becomes the first Pilot to ever receive All-American honors.
