Congratulations to all of our Wildcats!! McCoy has been great this season. I'm guessing Newcomer of the Year went to Johnson? No Wildcats on the Second team? I guess they had to put the PSU players somewhere.

You know, looking at that list, we have had a lot of memorable players at Weber.

BTW, what ever happened to old Slobie Ocokolijic? That guy teamed with Boyette was something else.

Here's what I don't understand. How can you be defensive player of the year and not even be on the all conference 2nd team?

That's a question you must ask Doug "Druggie" Fullerton.

The voting panel for the Big Sky awards were the nine head coaches. Can't blame this one on Fullerton.
