Rendleman for POY, huh? Interesting.

Paul Hewitt didn’t even get ONE vote for Coach of the Year, after taking over a Mason squad who lost a legendary coach, Cam Long, and Luke Hancock? Wow. Oh, well…I’d rather see him holding up the net on Monday night around 9:15 pm.
Congrats to Ryan Pearson for winning the POY – our first since George Evans’ streak of three in a row ended in 2001. FEAR THE (trimmed) BEARD!!
Wright deserved more love than one single vote, but he’ll prove the doubters wrong in 2012-13 when he gets his chance to shine in a lead role at Mason. Expect him to average 15-20 ppg next season.
GO MASON.
