Conference Awards
Voted by actual members of The Big Ten
Conference Coach of the Year: Scottevans21- Scott led Northwestern to a breakout season. He earned a Number 1 seed in the National Tournament and also made it to The Conference Tournament Finals. His season ended in the 2nd round of the National Tournament, a somewhat sour ending to a magical season.
Conference Defensive Player of the Year: Michael Harrell- Michael was the lynchpin to Michigan State's defense this year, leading the conference with 1.6 bpg while also adding .8 spg.
Conference Freshmen of the Year: Aaron Collard- Aaron came in as the number 3 player in the nation and didnt disappoint. His 10.4 ppg led the Big 10's frosh this season and he was a valuable key to Michigan State's season.
And Finally, the Conference Player of the Year is... Douglas Kennedy- Doug led Northwestern to its best season ever. He was 2nd in the conference in scoring with 15.7 ppg and 7th in assists with 2.8. Northwestern will definitely miss this guy next year.
