Cook Recognized at Final Four with Allstate NABC Good Works Team

Senior Steven Cook wore his black Princeton jersey two weeks ago as the Tigers pushed Notre Dame to the final possession in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Saturday night in Arizona, Cook was back in the black jersey, this time as an honoree on the Allstate NABC Good Works Team.

Cook arrived in the Phoenix area Friday to take part in a weekend of events around the Final Four with the Good Works Team, on which he earned a place through volunteer efforts and his academic and athletic accomplishments. Cook fundraised for a Sudanese hospital and interned at an anti-poverty organization in Chicago, was the Princeton men's basketball program's first CoSIDA Academic All-America since 1998, and earned first-team 2017 All-Ivy League and Ivy League All-Tournament Team honors while leading Princeton in scoring on the way to the outright Ivy League title, the inaugural Ivy League Tournament championship and the NCAA Tournament.

Cook appeared on the court with his fellow Good Works Team members during a media timeout during the first half of the Oregon-North Carolina game Saturday night. Sunday, he'll take part in the Allstate NABC Good Works Day with Special Olympics of Phoenix (photos below).

All seniors, Cook is one of five Division I honorees the Good Works Team alongside DePaul's Billy Garrett Jr., Iowa State's Monte Morris, Georgia Tech's Rand Rowland and Northwestern State's Sabri Thompson.

Cook finished his Princeton career 15th on the program's all-time scoring list at 1,148 points and tied for ninth with 156 career 3-pointers. During his four seasons, Cook played on teams that finished in the top three in the Ivy League every season, culminating in the program's first Ivy title and NCAA Tournament berth since 2011.
