BALTIMORE, MD – Johns Hopkins men's basketball junior guard Conner Delaney has been named the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Middle Atlantic Player of the Year as well as the D3hoops.com Mid-Atlantic Player of the Year. In addition, he was a first team all-district selection for both organizations.
 
Delaney is the first player in program history to earn district player of the year honors from either organization. He is just the eighth player in program history to earn First Team NABC All-Middle Atlantic and is just the second to earn the honor from D3hoops.com.
 
The Centennial Conference Player of the Year and First Team All-Centennial selection, Delaney had one of the most impressive seasons by a point guard in program history. He is the first point guard to lead the Blue Jays in both points (17.5) and assists (4.9) in the same season. He led the conference in points (490), assists (136), field goals (179) and field goal attempts (373). He also ranked second in free throw attempts (129), third in steals (46) and fourth in free throws (87) and assist-to-turnover ratio (2.0). 
 
Delaney's 136 assists are the fourth most in school single-season history and are the most since Dave Eikenberg dished 145 helpers in the 1990-91 season. He also posted the fifth most points, field goal attempts and field goals in school history. He scored 20 or more points 14 times this season and tied his career-high with 32 points in the Centennial Championship game.
 
Delaney was named the Centennial Conference Tournament MVP after that 32 point-performance in the title game. He scored the final eight points of the game, including the game-winner as time expired, as Hopkins knocked off top-ranked and previously unbeaten Swarthmore. Despite missing 17 games last season due to injury, Delaney already ranks fifth in school history in career assists (288), 14^th in steals (101), 17^th in free throw attempts (302), 19^th in three-point attempts (243) and three-pointers (83) and 20^th in free throws (206). In addition, he needs just nine points to rank 20^th in school history in scoring.
