MADISON, N.J. – After a highly-competitive regular season
a total of 12 student-athletes have been selected to the 2010-11
All-Landmark Conference Men's Basketball Team as selected by the
conference's eight head coaches. The team consists of a first and
second team, with six players on each team, and the selections made
by position. The voting for the All-Conference Team took place
after the conclusion of the regular season and prior to the start
of the Landmark postseason.
The University of Scranton, which finished atop the regular
season standings, led the way with three All-Conference selections.
Senior guard Zach Ashworth also picked up an additional award as he
was named Player of the Year for the second-consecutive season.
United States Merchant Marine Academy guard Tom Izzo was picked as
the Landmark Defensive Player of the Year while Susquehanna
freshman Harley Sellinger was tabbed as the Rookie of the Year.
Drew University Head Coach Darryl Keckler and his staff were voted
Coaching Staff of the Year after leading the Rangers to a
second-place conference finish and their first Landmark postseason
berth.
Six of the All-Conferences choices are return All-Conference
choices, including Ashworth and The Catholic University of
America's Jason Banzaf who become the first players to earn
Landmark All-Conference honors in each of their four seasons. USMMA
duo Matt Hueber and Tom Izzo are both three-time All-Conference
selections, while R.J. Dixon of Catholic and Chris Cullen of
