BYUH’s Chrisman all-American

Chrisman, from Provo, Utah, became just the fourth player in BYU-Hawai‘i’s history to average over 20 points per game as he led the PacWest Conference and was eighth nationally with a 23.3 points per game average during the season and playoffs.
Chrisman connected on 57.8 percent of his shots, good for second in the PacWest, and 24th nationally. He grabbed 5.7 rebounds per game and was named PacWest Player of the Week five times. He scored a season-high 42 points at Montana State Billings in February, the third highest point total in Seasider history. He was also named to the Hawai‘i Surf’N Slam All-Tournament team.
