The sophomore is the first player from Ball State University to make first team All-District since Bonzi Wells earned the honor in 1998. The last Cardinal to earn All-District honors of any kind was Theron Smith in 2002.
District 14 is made up entirely of Mid-American Conference schools.
Jones led Ball State with 12.2 points per game and 7.4 rebounds. He was the MAC's third-leading rebounder this year.
