Recently signed Adelaide 36ers recruit Jeff Dowdell has been named as the Australian Youth Player of the Year in the South East Australian Basketball League’s South Conference.
Dowdell played for the North West Tasmania Thunder and averaged 20.1 points and 9.3 rebounds for the season.
Dowdell’s new teammate Nathan Herbert will play for the Geelong Supercats on Saturday in the SEABL grand final against Bendigo after last Saturday clinching the South Conference title.
Herbert had a team-high 23 points as Geelong beat Hobart 99-87 in the South Conference grand final.
He set the tone from the opening tip with a trademark three-pointer after just 13 seconds.
