POUGHKEEPSIE, New York – Sophomore guard
Isaiah Brickner of the Marist men's basketball team was named Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Male Student-Athlete of the Week on Wednesday.
Â
Brickner has enjoyed success on the floor and in the classroom at Marist. Brickner is a Psychology major who named to the Dean's List in the Spring 2023 semester. He was selected to the MAAC Academic Honor Roll following the 2022-23 season.
Â
On the floor, Brickner was named to the MAAC All-Championship Team as a freshman as Marist reached the MAAC final for the first time in program history. He scored a career-high 21 points on the strength of a career-high five three-pointers against Quinnipiac in the MAAC quarterfinal round.
Â
Brickner was named Preseason Second Team All-MAAC prior to the 2023-24 season. His contributions are a major reason why the Red Foxes have started 7-2, which matches the program's best start after nine games in 26 years. Brickner currently leads the Red Foxes in assists, rebounds, and minutes played. In his last outing against UMES on Monday, he secured a career-high eight boards.

Marist returns to action on Friday at Notre Dame. Tip-off is set for 8 p.m.
