After losing in first round of last year's NCAA Tournament, the Boilermakers have been on a mission to capture the national title. Edey scored 20 points and had 12 rebounds to lead the Boilermakers past upstart N.C State, 63-50, in their Final Four matchup.

Edey is the first Purdue player to earn back-to-back consensus first-team honors since Rick Mount in 1969 and 1970. Edey, Mount and Terry Dischinger (1961, 1962) are the only two-time consensus first-team All-Americans in school history.
