Air Force guard Trevor Lyons, a junior out of Newport News, Virginia, is #20 in the 2016 Mountain West countdown.
The 6-3 guard started each of Air Force’s first 22 games before suffering a season-ending hand injury in late January. In that span, Lyons recorded 15 double-digit scoring nights, a nine assist game against Citadel, and recorded 30 minutes or more in 15 appearances.
Lyons was more efficient, statistically, as a freshman, but the MWC Connection staff projects a solid season for Lyons and the experienced Air Force backcourt. He could very well lead the Falcons offense in scoring the next two years if he can stay healthy.
Running Order:
- 20: Trevor Lyons, Air Force
- 21: Chandler Hutchison, Boise State
- 22: Alan Herndon, Wyoming
- 23: Paris Austin, Boise State
- 24: Shane Rector, Utah State
- 25: Koby McEwen, Utah State
