CHAPEL HILL—The College Sports Information Directors of America selected University of North Carolina sophomore guard RJ Davis to the 2021‐22 Academic All‐District Men's Basketball Team. CoSIDA's Academic All‐America program recognizes the nation's top student‐athletes for their combined performances on the court and in the classroom.
First‐team Academic All‐District honorees advance to the CoSIDA Academic All‐America ballot. First‐, second‐and third‐team Academic All‐America honorees will be announced in mid‐March.
Davis is one of five players selected to the District 3 team with Bethel's Luke Smith, Chattanooga's Malachi Smith, Tennessee's Santiago Vescovi and Vanderbilt's Jordan Wright. Davis has a 3.31 grade point average working toward a major in exercise and sports science.
The White Plains, N.Y., native is one of three Atlantic Coast Conference men's basketball players to receive academic all-district recognition with Syracuse's Jimmy Boeheim (District 1) and Florida State's Harrison Prieto (District 4).
Davis has started every game this season for the 18-8 Tar Heels. He is Carolina's fourth-leading scorer at 13.5 points per game, is second on the team with 89 assists and third with 45 three-point field goals. He has scored in double figures 19 times with a career-high 26 against Brown in November.
