Senior Avery Salisbury recently received both All-Conference and All-State recognition from the 5A West Conference.

The 6'3" Salisbury played every position on the floor led the team in both scoring and rebounding on the season as well as second on the team in assists. With season highs of 28 and 27 points, Avery was the first name mentioned on every scouting report for the Pointers. After suffering a season ending injury as a Sophomore, Avery ended his career as the 3rd leading 3 point shooter in a season and the all-time leader in 3 point makes for his career at 129 makes. He broke the record of 128 previously held by former Pointer Chad Lee.

Avery finished the 2020-21 season averaging 18 points and 6 rebounds per game while shooting 46% from the field and 42% from the 3 point line. His game winning shot from half court at Alma will be remembered for a long time. He always wanted the biggest shot and never doubted it was going in. Avery's ability to play a complete game in every statistical category will be greatly missed.

Congratulations to Avery on recognition for an outstanding season and career.
