CLARKSVILLE—And another one.

Austin Peay State University senior Terry Taylor has been named to the Lou Henson Award Mid-Season Watch List by CollegeInsider.com.

The Lou Henson National Player of the Year Award, which is presented annually to the top mid-major player in division I college basketball, honors the former Illinois and New Mexico State head coach who won 775 games in 41 seasons. Players on teams from the following conferences are eligible for the award: America East, Atlantic Sun, Big Sky, Big South, Big West, Colonial, Horizon, Ivy, Metro Atlantic, Mid-American, Mid-Eastern, Missouri Valley, Northeast, Ohio Valley, Patriot, Southern, Southland, Southwestern, Summit, Sun Belt and West Coast.

The 2020 Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year and back-to-back league Preseason Player of the Year, Taylor has more than lived up to the hype once again as a senior. Through 13 games, the Bowling Green native is averaging 21.2 points and 10.8 rebounds to lead the league in both categories, while 55.1 percent from the floor and 83.3 percent from the free-throw line.

Taylor has already put up multiple individual performances that would be career outings for a lesser player in 2020-21. He opened the season with five consecutive double-doubles, including a 25-point, 16-rebound outing against ETSU on the second night of the season. He poured in 31 points against McKendree. He slapped up 31 points and 13 rebounds to avenge a loss to Murray State. Most recently, he put up 38 points and 17 rebounds—both single-game highs by an OVC player this season—and banked in the game-winning three as time expired to lift the Govs to a victory at Eastern Illinois, Jan. 9.

Three times this season, Taylor has earned OVC Player of the Week honors, tying him with Morehead State's Kenneth Faried for most in conference history with 15 career weekly honors. He also was named CollegeInsider.com Player of the Week in two of those weeks.

Just last week, Taylor broke into the OVC's career top-10 in scoring with 2,199 career points. He's one of five players in league history with 2,000 career points and 1,000 career rebounds, and the first Governor to reach both marks. He's the only OVC player aside from Belmont's Nick Muszynski to be named to the Lute Olson Award Mid-Season Watch List.

Taylor has a chance to become the first two-time OVC Player of the Year since Isaiah Canaan (Murray State, 2012-13) and just the second Governor to earn two OVC Player of the Year honors, joining Howard (1977-78). Monday, he was named to the Lute Olson Award Mid-Season Watch List by CollegeInsider.com and Tuesday he was named to the Mid-Year Watch List for the Jerry West Award by the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.

Taylor is one four OVC players to earn a spot on the Henson Award Mid-Season Watch List; he's joined by Eastern Kentucky's Tre King and Belmont's duo of Grayson Murphy and Nick Muszynski.
