DAVIDSON, N.C. – Davidson basketball coach Bob McKillop announced today, that seniors Nik Cochran (Vancouver, B.C.), Jake Cohen (Berwyn, Pa.), JP Kuhlman (Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.) and Clint Mann (Overland Park, Kan.) have been named team captains for the 2012-13 season.
The captains are selected in a vote by the team and coaching staff.
“We are fortunate to have four seniors who are not just skilled basketball players but they also have the talent of leadership,” said McKillop.
One of two Wildcats to start every game last season, Cochran averaged 10.9 points while leading the team in assists per game (3.6), free-throw percentage (.886) and 3-point field-goal percentage (.373). The third-team all-conference selection was also named SoCon Player of the Week on Dec. 20 after leading Davidson to an 80-74 win over then-ranked No. 12 Kansas with a game-high 21 points.
Voted SoCon Player of the Year by the media, Cohen currently ranks among Davidson's all-time leaders in points (1287 / 20th), blocks (141 / 2nd) and total rebounds (566 / 24th). The 6-10 forward finished 2011-12 averaging 14.3 points, 6.1 rebounds and a league-best 1.7 blocks, while ranking second behind Cochran in the conference with a .876 clip from the charity stripe.
The seventh Davidson men's basketball player to garner Academic All-America honors, Kuhlman started every game last season averaging 10.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.9 assists. A career 37-percent shooter from behind the 3-point arc, Kuhlman was one of three Wildcats named to the 2012 SoCon All-Tournament team.
In 2011-12, Mann contributed 5.7 points and 3.0 rebounds in 31 games off the bench. After scoring 10 points on 4-of-4 shooting in the SoCon Championship, the 6-7 forward charted a season-high 13 points in Davidson's NCAA Tournament game against 2012 Final Four participant Louisville.
Davidson finished the 2011-12 campaign with a 25-8 overall record, marking the fourth time in the last six seasons the Wildcats have posted 25 or more wins. Davidson returns all five starters and the top eight scorers and rebounders from last year's NCAA Tournament squad.
