BEMIDJI 鈥� Bemidji State men鈥檚 basketball senior forward John Sutherland earned his third-straight All-NSIC honor for the 2024-2025 season, as announced by the conference Thursday morning.
Sutherland, who became the program鈥檚 leading rebounder Wednesday against St. Cloud State, sat out just under half of the team鈥檚 contests this season due to injury.

This injury did not set him back too far, as he returned just before winter break and quickly rose in the program鈥檚 record books, ending his senior season in first place for career rebounds, second in scoring and fifth in assists.
This season, Sutherland appeared in 17 games, marking 15 starts and 576 minutes on the court. He went 118-202 from the field for a shooting percentage of .584. Sutherland added 124 total rebounds, averaging 7.3 per game, and 75 assists for 4.4 per game. Adding five blocks and 15 steals, he finished the season with 271 points, averaging 15.9 per game.
Following his graduation from Bemidji State, Sutherland plans to return to his hometown of Grand Rapids and begin a career in finance.
