It seems only fitting to get these released the day after The Oscars. There’s some commentary and reasoning sprinkled in as well. And as mentioned last week, we’re staying away from All Defensive team. It’s way too subjective. Player of the Year Charles Jenkins, Hofstra: Do I actually need to detail the reasons? First Team, All CAA Jenkins Denzel Bowles, JMU Frank Hassell, ODU Cam Long, Mason Ryan Pearson, Mason (huge February) Second Team All CAA Chase Allen, NU (razor thin margin between Allen and Pearson for the final spot) Samme Givens, Drexel Kent Bazemore, ODU Jamie Skeen, VCU (was first team until around Valentine’s Day) Chad Tomko, UNCW (lots of rebounds for a short guy) Third Team All CAA Quinn McDowell, William & Mary Chris Fouch, Drexel Jawan Carter, Delaware Luke Hancock, Mason Mike Moore, Hofstra Others close, or, the fourth team: Keith Rendleman, Brad Burgess, Devon Saddler, Isaiah Philmore, Ben Finney. All Freshman Team Devon Saddler, Delaware (frosh of year and considered for third team) Dartaye Ruffin, Drexel (this is a 1b pick. I’d have them share honors, but I’m not weenie-ing out) Brandon Britt, W&M Ryan Pierson, NU Frantz Massenat, Drexel (razor thin over Donte Morales from UNCW. I went point guard being difficult and he has 94 assists) Coach of the Year Mo Cassara, Hofstra This isn’t to take anything away from how Jim Larranaga has his team playing. Mason’s head man is a close second here, and I’d wager wins out when the votes are compiled. However, here’s why I give the edge to Cassara. Hofstra finished 14-4–that’s 14-4–despite: the mess that Cassara walked into. That he didn’t get to start recruiting until May. That he lost Nat Lester completely and Brad Kelleher for eight games. That he lost his point guard (Dwan McMillian). That his second best player is a transfer. That Hofstra was pummeled in three January games but rallied to finish tied for second. Oh, and the hammer reason: Cassara got them to 14-4, despite those obstacles, and Cassara is 37 years old in his very first year as a head coach.
