CHARLOTTE, N.C.- Kenny Dye of the Queens University of Charlotte men's basketball team and Kalaya Hall of the women's basketball team have been named December InterCon Male and Female Student-Athletes of the Month. 
 
Dye, one of the most dynamic guards to ever wear a Queens uniform, continued to cement his name in the Royals' history books in December with multiple career highlights. Not only did he become the 19^th player in program history to eclipse the 1,000-point mark, he did it while leading the South Atlantic Conference in three-point percentage at just over 53-percent so far this season, the second-best percentage in the nation. Dye also ranks second in the conference in both assists (76) and assists per game (5.8) as he continues to facilitate the offense with ease. He is second on the team in scoring with 15.1 points per game, which is a top ten mark in the conference as well. The crown jewel of his month of December was his go-ahead lay-up he cashed in against #10 Lincoln Memorial with 2.1 seconds left to give Queens the lead and the huge early-season win.
 
Hall, a junior guard for the Royals, helped Queens secure both of their SAC wins in the month of December. She led the Royals averaging 15.2 points per game having recorded more than 10 points in all but one game this season. For the season, Hall is averaging 16.1 points per game which ranks seventh in the league. In the win over Mars Hill, Hall recorded 23 points which was her best output for the month. 

Both the men's and women's basketball teams will kick off the new year tomorrow at home. The women will host Newberry while the men will face Lenoir-Rhyne.
