Jonathan Grimsley caps second Cougars stint with second consecutive CUNYAC Honorable Mention

Medgar Evers men's basketball standout Jonathan Grimsley earned a CUNYAC Honorable Mention distinction (period of 2/16-2/22) for the second consecutive week following his tremendous performances in games last week against John Jay (2/18) and Lehman (2/22). Following the announcement of the Honorable Mention, Head Coach Brian Nigro praised Grimsley.

"Jonathan was a sensational second-half addition to our team, and he changed the offensive dynamic for us exponentially," Nigro said. "He approaches basketball games with confidence and fearlessness, and that was evident in the conference clash against John Jay (February 18) in which he led all players in scoring and rebounding. I wish him continued success in his life after Medgar Evers College."

Back on Tuesday, February 18 in the Cougars' home regular season finale, Grimsley posted game-highs of 37 points (7-8 FT) and 20 rebounds. Four days later in Medgar Evers' CUNYAC postseason loss at Lehman College (2/22), the senior played exceptionally well in his final game for the institution, tying for the game-high of 25 points (9-17 FG, 6-6 FT) to go along with five rebounds and a pair of steals.

For the 2024-2025 campaign, Grimsley led the team in scoring (23.1 PPG), rebounding (9.6 RPG), field goal percentage (45.2 percent), three-point field goal percentage with a minimum of 20 attempts (34.9 percent), and minutes per contest (29.3).
