MBB: Moore Named to All-CAA Second Team

Richmond, Va. - Senior guard Mike Moore earned All-Colonial Athletic Association second-team honors, the league announced on Thursday night at the awards banquet.

George Mason's Ryan Pearson was named the league's Player of the Year. Also receiving top honors were Drexel's Bruiser Flint as the CAA Coach of the Year, Drexel freshman guard Damion Lee as the Rookie of the Year and Old Dominion senior guard Kent Bazemore as the Defensive Player of the Year.

Moore ended the regular season as the CAA's leading scorer, averaging 20 points per game. Through 31 contests, the veteran shooting guard has 621 points, making him the only player in the conference to surpass the 600-point mark this season. Joining Moore on the second team is ODU senior forward Chris Cooper (10.6 ppg/10.3 rpg), Drexel senior forward Samme Givens (11.7 ppg/7.8 rpg), Delaware junior forward Jamelle Hagins (12.7 ppg/11.3 rpg) and Delaware sophomore guard Devon Saddler (18.7 ppg/4.1 rpg).

Saddler is the conference's No. 2 scorer with 18.7 points per game, but in the two games that Hofstra and Delaware have opposed each other this season, Moore out-scored Saddler by a 40-18 margin. On Feb. 14, Moore scored a team-high 16 points compared to Saddler's four points on Feb. 14. Saddler did not make a field goal in six attempts while Moore went 5-for-16, including a pair of three-pointers. At ODU on Jan. 14, Moore out-scored ODU all-first teamer Kent Bazemore, 21-16, and scored more than Cooper's 13 points.

The Pride also took home additional individual honors. Senior guard Dwan McMillan was named to the CAA All-Academic first team and junior forward Matt Grogan was a CAA All-Academic honorable mention.

Eleventh-seeded Hofstra will face sixth-seeded Georgia State on Friday in the first round of the CAA Tournament with an 8:30 p.m. start at Richmond Coliseum.
