Under his tutelage, L’Oreal Price was named CIAA Tournament MVP and Bahamas Shootout DII Tournament Most Valuable Player; Deja Middleton was named the conference’s Defensive Player of the Year, and Tiffany Haywood set a career-high with 10 double-doubles and was named to the All-CIAA and NCCSIA All-State team.
