Posted: Mar 17, 2026

BOSSIER CITY, La. — The Bossier Parish Community College men’s basketball team collected multiple Region XIV postseason honors following the 2025–2026 season, with two freshmen leading the way against elite conference competition.

 

Freshman point guard Tony Montgomery (Columbus, Ga.) was named First Team All-Region XIV, becoming one of only two freshmen in the conference to earn first-team recognition. Montgomery delivered a dominant debut season, leading Region XIV in both scoring (19.5 points per game) and assists (4.9 per game). Montgomery’s all-around production powered the Cavaliers throughout the season, as he averaged 19.5 points, 4.9 assists, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.9 steals per game while shooting 42 percent from the field, 32 percent from three-point range, and 77 percent from the free throw line.

“Every game he faced double teams, all-out traps, full denial, and box-and-one defenses,” said Head Coach Jeff Moore. “But it didn’t stop him from scoring. That tells you everything about his toughness and ability.”

 

Freshman forward Drew Cooper (West Monroe, La.) earned Honorable Mention All-Region XIV honors, one of only seven freshmen recognized on the list. Cooper proved to be a reliable scoring threat and clutch performer, averaging 15.4 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. Cooper ranked third in the region in free throw percentage at 84 percent and shot 41 percent from the field and 35 percent from beyond the arc, finishing the season as one of the Cavaliers’ most consistent offensive weapons.

“Drew made huge three-point shots and post plays for our team all season,” Moore said. “He stepped up in big moments and gave us a strong inside-out presence.”

 

As a team, the Cavaliers showcased one of the most explosive offenses in Region XIV, leading the conference in three-pointers made (311 total) and finishing with a 34-percent shooting mark from beyond the arc. BPCC also led the region at the free throw line, converting 75-percent of its attempts.

 

Moore credited his team’s success to its resilience and growth throughout the season.

“This group competed every game and continued to improve,” Moore said. “We leaned on a young core that didn’t back down from any challenge, and that experience is going to pay off moving forward. I’m proud of the way they represented BPCC all season.”
