EDISON, N.J. – Fairfield University Men's Basketball standout Supreme Cook has been named to the All-MAAC Third Team, as announced on Monday by the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference office and voted upon by the league's head coaches. Cook leads the Stags with 13.3 points per game and ranks third in the conference with a team-best 8.5 rebounds per contest.
 
Cook is Fairfield's first All-MAAC honoree since Tyler Nelson was tabbed for the All-MAAC First Team at the close of the 2017-18 regular season. This season, Cook and Marist's Patrick Gardner – a Second Team pick – are the only two MAAC players to lead their respective teams in both points and rebounds.
 
Cook bolstered his 13.3 points and 8.5 rebounds per game with eight double-doubles, the second-most in the MAAC this season. He also ranks fifth in the MAAC in field goal percentage (.549) and slots second in both free throws made (104) and attempted (165).
 
Most recently, Cook scored a career-high 26 points on 12-for-15 shooting from the field in the Stags' 92-82 win over Quinnipiac to cap the regular season at Leo D. Mahoney Arena. His showing against the Bobcats boosted his totals against MAAC opponents to 13.1 points per game on .537 shooting and 8.9 rebounds per game.
 
Cook and the Stags are the seventh-seeded team in this week's MAAC Championship. Fairfield opens the postseason on Tuesday, March 7 against defending MAAC Champion Saint Peter's at 7 p.m. The advancing team will meet second-seeded Rider on Wednesday, March 8 at 9:30 p.m.
