The other winners so far were Kasim Chndler, Jimmy Taylor and Ryden Hines. Hines is the only frontcourt player so far, everyone else PGS

Do they pick the best freshmen or best at each position?

Best freshman overall for ROY, with an all rookie team.

Congratulations & well deserved. It's always easy to give the weekly award to the Frosh who scores, but the MAAC is finally getting it - that a PG who isn't known as a scorer can win it too. Not saying he can't score, but for MAAC to reward a true PG. Without Wright we don't play as well or win. I hoping by year's end JO, Long, White & Wolf can win it at least once. I think the Siena Women's team have had like 3 or 4 different Frosh win ROW. Let's Go Saints!!! I agree and it shows growth in the media to recognize the pg position for what it truly is..I said when the season started that he would recieve multiple awards because he leads the league in the 2 important categories for his position. ..I love when the pg is rewarded for playing the position the right way..too often a pg will be told he needs to score to be recognized and they change their games for the worse . MAAC has rewarded pure PGs for years. Ask Ronald Moore , ROW awards before he grew 'onions'

My question is will the all freshmen team consist of the top 5 freshmen or will positions matter? Someone posted the positions of the freshmen that have one so far.. so I ask if that matters... I get that the best freshman overall will win FOY

Positions will not matter. The team will be made up of players that got a weekly award.

Ok makes sense...so the player who gets the most wins ROY and the next 5 make up the all rookie team?

It is not as cut and dry as that since the coaches select the team amongst the weekly winners. I'm sure the more weekly awards help influence the votes. Marquis is in a good position now as several players on last year''a team only had one weekly award.

Did last year's ROY have the most awards?

There were co Roy last year. One had a tie for most at three and One of them only had one weekly. Meanwhile a third player not coy had three. Marquis has a good shot at making the all rookie but not guaranteed for Roy even if he ends up with the most weeklies. But if he does that would mean he put up some great numbers which would make him my Roy regardless!

Ok I see...since the coaches make the selections while someone else selects the weekly awards there is a grey area

I'll answer the question you're dying to ask.....YES, Lavon can make the team without ever winning a ROW.
And if doesn't make it, we can refer back to the aforementioned "grey area" you've created in case of that very thing happening.

Bait, Bite Battle warning.... HJ - isn't possible she was just trying to understand something that, after all these years, ALL of us don't have a true handle on yet because of how damned subjective it is? Really love it when an All-MAAC or All Rookie team has like 3 PGs & 2 4s. Welcome to the Mickey Mouse MAAC...

We should also clarify that the team wealth gets spread around. Rare to have multiple from same team, but it has happened. Records available at maacsports.com.

Just looked it up--- the other week marquis won was the week he made the game winning shot against st. Bonaventure. What a way to start his career at Siena!
