Postseason Awards and Activities
By Hoya HoopsWith the season over for the Hoyas, three Georgetown seniors are still making headlines:
- Roy Hibbert was named a Second Team Associated Press All-American this week. Roy was also named to the First Team All-Big East squad this past season, First Team All-Big East in 2007, and Second Team All-Big East in 2006.
- Patrick Ewing, Jr. will participate in the 20th Annual State Farm College Slam Dunk Championship this Thursday in San Antonio. He will be competing against James Gist of Maryland, Will Bullard of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, J.R. Giddens of New Mexico, Brian Randle of Illinois, Deron Washington of Virginia Tech, Sonny Weems of Arkansas, and Joey Dorsey of Memphis. The event will be televised nationally on ESPN and ESPN HD beginning at 9:00PM.
- Patrick Ewing, Jr. will also join Jonathan Wallace as they participate in the 56th Annual Portsmouth Invitational Tournament next week. The P.I.T. is the last opportunity for seniors to be evaluated by NBA coaches and scouts before the NBA pre-draft camp in Orlando. Johnny will be heading to Portsmouth, VA to cover a few of the games and hopefully get a chance to talk to some of the players and coaches.
