Utah Basketball: Jakob Poeltl Named to AP All-American Team & NABC All-American Team

The All-American teams keep adding up for Utah center Jakob Poeltl. To go along with the various ones he's been named to thus far, he has been named to the AP and the NABC 2nd team within the last couple of days. Poeltl is coming off of a great season, where he was also named the Pac-12 Player of the Year. He didn't end the season very well, with only a 5 point output against Gonzaga in the NCAA Tournament. So if you were wondering if his poor tournament appearance affected his placement on the AP team, it didn't, as voting was conducted before the NCAA Tournament.
