Zayden Calhoun is the first Freshman of the Year Villanova has ever produced. Considering the talented first year players we've had here--including Freshman All-Americans like Asher Wise and Chris Woolstenhulme--that's quite the honor.
Charlie Lambert joins some very select company, too. He and Mason Reynolds are Villanova's only first team All-Americans. The committee chooses Burton Brister's more explosive scoring over Sebastian Roberts' all-around excellence, and Seb earns a spot on the second team.

I was hoping Charlie would win Big East Player of the Year, but Taylor Murray is a deserving choice. Charlie and Sebastian achieve their second All-Big East honors; both were tapped two years ago, too.
Zayden is a natural choice for conference FOY, and I'm delighted to see Nick Spencer join him on the conference Freshman Team.
Graham Sims receives a sixth Big East Coach of the Year award for his personal trophy case.
