Senior Jake Cohen of the Davidson men's basketball team was recently named one of 25 finalists for the Lou Henson National Player of the Year Award. For the second straight year CollegeInsider.com is working with Point3 Basketball to promote the Lou Henson award “fan vote,” which will constitute 33% of the final vote.

The 2013 Award will be presented at the CollegeInsider.com awards banquet in Atlanta, site of the men's NCAA Basketball Championship.

The Wildcats' all-time leader in blocks with 190, Cohen is averaging 14.9 points, 5.7 rebounds and 1.8 blocks this season, while shooting just under 50 percent the floor and 83.2 percent at the charity stripe.

A native of Berwyn, Pa., Cohen has scored in double figures 24 times in 2012-13, including a career-high 32 points at College of Charleston (2/14) and 28 (25 first half) in the Wildcats' 12th straight win, a 93-87 (ot) BracketBusters victory over Montana Feb. 23.

Last year's SoCon Player of the Year (Media), Cohen also ranks among Davidson's career leaders in points (1,719 / 6th), rebounds (730 / 9th) and starts (117 / 1st).

The Lou Henson Award is presented annually to the top mid-major player in Division I college basketball. The award is named in honor of Lou Henson who retired after a spectacular coaching career that lasted 41 years. When he left the game in 2005 he was sixth all-time in career Division I wins with 779. He is the winningest coach at both Illinois and New Mexico State. He is one of only 12 coaches in the history of the game to take two schools to the Final Four.

The 2013 Award will be presented at the CollegeInsider.com awards banquet in Atlanta, site of the men's NCAA Basketball Championship.
