Long Beach State senior James Ennis, Cal State Fullerton senior D.J. Seeley and sophomore Alan Williams of UC Santa Barbara nabbed postseason accolades today with their selections to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) 2012-13 Division I All-District team.

Ennis received first-team honors for District 9, joining Gonzaga's Kelly Olynyk and Elias Harris, Saint Mary's Matthew Dellavedova and BYU's Tyler Haws on the list.

Ennis (Ventura, Calif./Ventura College), the 2012-13 Big West Player of the Year, averaged 16.5 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.8 steals to rank fifth, ninth and third statistically in the Big West in those respective categories.  The accolades keep coming in for Ennis, who also has been named a Lou Henson Mid-Major All-American and U.S. Basketball Writers Association All-District IX.

Seeley (Stockton, Calif./Cal) and Williams (Phoenix, Ariz./North HS) made up two-fifths of the all-district second team as they were recognized alongside BYU's Brandon Davies, Santa Clara's Kevin Foster and Kevin Pangos of Gonzaga.

Seeley ranked No. 3 in the Big West in scoring (17.9 ppg), No. 5 in free throw percentage (.808) and No. 6 in assists (3.9 apg), finishing his two-year career at Cal State Fullerton with 1,037 points.

Williams, who led the Big West with 15 double-doubles this season, led the league in rebounding with 10.7 per contest and ranked No. 4 in scoring (17.1 ppg).  The Gauchos have placed at least one player on the first or second all-district teams in each of the last four seasons.

The NABC All-District teams recognize the nation's best men's collegiate basketball student-athletes across America.  The 242 student-athletes, from 24 districts, are eligible for the NABC Coaches' Division I All-America teams.
