WASHINGTON - Jayden Dawson and Miles Rubin collected All-Atlantic 10 honors Tuesday afternoon, the league announced. Dawson was tabbed to the Second Team, while Rubin was named All-Defensive for the second consecutive season.

It marks the first A-10 postseason honor for Dawson.

Dawson leads the Ramblers in scoring, averaging 13.5 points per game. He has racked up 19 games with at least 10 points scored and a team-leading five 20-point outings. The junior guard is shooting 42.1 percent from the field and 38.8 percent from three-point range with 71 makes on the year. Dawson adds 3.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists 1.0 steals, and 0.7 blocks per game.

In the season opener, Dawson dropped his first 20 piece of the year. He then recorded four more 20+ point games in conference play, including three straight games to earn A-10 Player of the Week honors. The Omaha native scored 24 at Richmond, a career-high 26 vs. Saint Louis, and another 24 at Davidson. Dawson made at least five threes in each game. 

For the second straight year, Rubin earned All-Defensive honors. Rubin leads the Ramblers in both rebounds per game (5.2) and blocks per game (2.4). In the NCAA, Rubin ranks eighth in total blocks (74) and 11th in blocks per game (2.4). His 12.3 block percentage also ranks eighth in the Nation.

Rubin has three double-doubles and four games with 10+ rebounds this season. He grabbed a career-best 13 rebounds at Pricenton helping Loyola to the win. He's tallied at least three blocks in 15 games this year, including a season-high five vs. San Francisco. Rubin needs three more blocks to break the single-season record of 76 that he set last year. He also ranks third in the program's record book with 150 career-blocks. 

Dawson and Rubin will help the Ramblers open A-10 Tournament play this Friday. Loyola earned the No. 4 seed and a double-bye straight into the league's quarterfinals.
