Men's Basketball 1997-2000
The native of Melbourne, Australia, led the Roadrunners to their first-ever national championship in men’s basketball in 2000 as a senior, earning Division II Bulletin first team All-America and RMAC Player of the Year honors. A 6-foot-9 forward, he averaged 14.6 points and 5.5 rebounds in 2000.
His success was not limited to his senior season, however, as he was an all-conference performer as a sophomore in 1998 and was named to the Elite Eight All-Tournament team as a junior after leading Metro State to the national championship game in 1999. He scored 19 points in the 1999 national championship game in a 75-60 loss to Kentucky Wesleyan. However, he helped the Roadrunners to redemption in the 2000 championship game, scoring 17 points with seven rebounds in a 97-79 win in a rematch against Kentucky Wesleyan. He was named to the 2000 Elite Eight All-Tournament team again.
For his career, Barlow still ranks eighth on the all-time scoring list at Metro State with 1,392 points and seventh in points per game at 13.8. He is also among the rebounding leaders and free throw leaders, ranking sixth with 674 rebounds. His career free throws made record of 393 was finally broken in 2008-09 by fellow-Aussie Jesse Wagstaff. Barlow also ranks in the top-10 in steals and blocked shots.
He was named to the 11-player RMAC All-Century Team in 2009.
