For the third straight season senior Carlee Cassidy was named to the women’s basketball All-America East second team. This season she averaged 13.1 points per game and 4.6 rebounds per game. But her three point ability was one again prevalent after averaging 2.3 three-pointers per game, making 32.4% of her attempts.

After an inconsistent start to the season Cassidy scored in double figures in 11 of 16 regular season conference games.

Cassidy also was recognized for her academic success. As a sociology and Media and Communications double major, she accumulated a 3.35 GPA and earned a spot on the 2010 women’s basketball all-academic team.

On the men’s side, Chauncey Gilliam earned third-team all-conference honors while Adrian Satchell was named to the all-rookie team.

Gilliam led UMBC with 13.5 points and 1.5 steals per game while shooting 41.8% from the field. He also had 3.7 rebounds per game.

Gilliam shined in conference play, scoring in his final 12 games and averaging 15.3 points and 4.1 rebounds against America East opponents.

Satchell started all of the teams 29 games in his freshman season and averaged 6.0 points and 4.8 rebounds per game. He led the team with a 50.7 field goal percentage, which also lead all freshman in the America East Conference.
