Guard Mark Sears is the latest. He was one of the players named to the All-SEC first team as voted by the coaches announced Monday ahead of the SEC Tournament. Sears was also an All-SEC second team selection a season ago.
Sears is second this season in the SEC in points per game, averaging 21.1. The senior guard has tallied 20 or more points in 21 games this season.
The Crimson Tide did not have any other players earn a spot on any of the All-SEC teams.
