Senior Thompson was named team MVP at the squad's banquet last night (and yes it really is called the Coach John Wooden Award). Jordan Farmar and Arron Afflalo shared honors for best freshman. There was a whole laundry list of other awards given out, including awards for leading the team in categories like rebounds and assists, but also general categories like Competitive Spirit, Inspiration and Unselfish Contributions (Matt McKinney) and Most Improvement in All-Around Play and Mental Attitude (Michael Fey).
