Davis, Calif. - Ezra Manjon and Elijah Pepper represented UC Davis on the Big West All-Conference teams announced on Monday by the Big West. 

Manjon was named to the First Team while Pepper earned a spot on the Second Team.

It's the third straight season Manjon has been named to an All-Conference team and the the second straight for Pepper. In addition to being the 2019-20 Big West Freshman of the Year, Manjon was also named All-Conference Second Team in 2019-20 and 2020-21. Pepper was named to the Second Team last season. 

Manjon and Pepper teamed up to form one of most lethal back courts in the conference over the course of the season, finishing ranked fourth and fifth in points per game - the two highest ranking teammates in the Big West. 

Pepper averaged a career-high 15.3 points per game, shot over 80 percent from the free throw line for the third straight season and had a career-high 34 steals. He finished tied for first in the Big West with 2.5 made threes per game and earned his second career Big West Player of the Week award on Dec. 6, 2021. 

Manjon continued to build what has become one of the most impressive resumes in program history, crossing 1,000 career points in the regular season's final game. He won the fourth and fifth player of the week awards of his career while shooting over 40 percent for the third straight season. He set a new career single game high with 27 points to lead UC Davis to a 71-64 win over Oregon State in December and nearly set a new career mark for total points in a season in 10 fewer games than his high of 388 set in 2019-20. 

The two sophomores will lead UC Davis at the Big West Conference Tournament that begins on Tuesday at The Dollar Loan Center in Henderson, Nev. The Aggies start the tournament with a first round game against Cal Poly at 8:30.
