GREENWOOD, Ind. – Northern Kentucky University Norse men's basketball student-athlete Tae Dozier earned CSC Academic All-District honors on Tuesday. 

The graduate guard had a stellar season on the court, being named to the Horizon League All-Defensive Team in his lone season with the Norse. In his 2025-26 campaign, Dozier averaged 8.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.6 steals, and 1.2 blocks per game in 34 games played, 29 of those being starts. His 97 combined blocks and steals (55 steals, 42 blocks) marked the most in a season for the Norse since the squad joined Division I in 2012.

In the classroom, Dozier is earning his Master's in Business Administration and will graduate in the spring of 2026. He was previously named to the MSC All-Academic Team while at Georgetown College. 

Dozier becomes the first honoree since Drew McDonald earned the distinction in the 2018-19 campaign.
