MADISON, Wis. - Wisconsin junior forward Ethan Happ was named a first-team All-Big Ten selection by the media on Monday, earning the honor for the second year in a row after leading the Badgers in points, rebounds, assists, blocks and steals.

Happ is the eighth player in UW history to win multiple first-team All-Big Ten honors, following Don Rehfeldt (1949-50), Ab Nicholas (1951-52), Michael Finley (1993, 1995), Kirk Penney (2002-03), Alando Tucker (2007-08), Jordan Taylor (2011-12) and Frank Kaminsky (2014-15).

UW freshman guard Brad Davison was also named to the league's All-Freshman team after scoring 12.1 points per game in his first collegiate season despite playing through a shoulder injury for most of the year.
