COLLEGE PARK, MD - Coming off one of the top individual seasons in program history, Maryland's Jahmir Young has been named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District 7 First Team. It marked the third postseason honor for the Upper Marlboro native who was also named to the All-Big Ten First Team and the Associated Press All-Big Ten Second Team.

Young was also selected to the All-Big Ten Second Team by the coaches and named as Maryland's Sportsmanship Award honoree.

Young finished the 2023-24 season averaging 20.4 points per game which ranks third in the Big Ten and 29th nationally. His 2,626 career points are second-most among all active NCAA players. He posted a career-best 652 points this year which ranks 12th all-time for a single-season at Maryland. He is just the fifth player in Maryland history to reach 1,000 points in two seasons and the third fastest to do so needing just 57 games.

His 20.4 points per game this year is tied for 11th in a single-season for program history, while his 18.0 point per game average over two years is fifth-best all-time at Maryland for a career. After having posted 1,421 points at Charlotte, he became just the sixth player since 2006 to score 1,000 points at two different institutions. He concluded his Maryland career with 1,205 points which ranks 37th all-time in program history. He also tied Eric Hayes for the program record for free throw percentage (.870) after converting 341-of-392 attempts. His 198 made free throws this year rank fifth all-time for a single-season, while his .900 free throw percentage was third. He also finished his career ranked eighth all-time for minutes average at 33.2 per game.

Young posted 18 20-point games this year along with three 30-point efforts. His career-high 37 points in the win at UCLA and his 36 points at Northwestern are the top two individual regular-season scoring performances in the league this year.

He earned All-Big Ten Second Team honors in 2023 where he was also a two-time All-District selection earning NABC and USBWA honors.
