Athletic Excellence

At the time of his selection, the 6-foot-2, 160-pound senior point guard had led the Cadets to a 31-3 record and a berth in the Alhambra Catholic Invitational Tournament semifinals. Mack averaged 15.4 points, 5.2 assists, 4.9 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game through 34 contests. Mack also helped St. John’s win its first Washington Catholic Athletic Conference Tournament crown since 2016. A two-time First Team All-WCAC selection, he missed his entire sophomore season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee.
