Posted Apr 4, 2008
The trophy case is continuing to expand for Tyler Hansbrough, who picked up The Associated Press’ men’s college basketball player of the year award less than 45 minutes after earning the same recognition from the USBWA on Friday morning. "I feel very honored to get this award, considering all of the good college players this year," Hansbrough said. "I’ve always said that I’ve had great parents to help me."
