Brian Bibb Named HCAC Player of the Month
TERRE HAUTE, IND. - Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology senior men's basketball standout Brian Bibb (Hoopeston, Ill.) has been named the November Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference Men's Player of the Month by the league office.To earn the award, Bibb was selected as the top male athlete in any sport at any institution during the month of November by league sports information directors. Each college is permitted one nominee for the entire athletic department per month, and the nine nominees are placed on one ballot for voting. This marks the third consecutive month that a Rose-Hulman athlete has been HCAC Player of the Month. Women's tennis player Sam Danesis won the award in September, and men's soccer forward David McIlwaine won the October award. Bibb averaged 16.8 points and a league-high 12.5 rebounds per game during the month of November. His efforts included a career-high 19 rebound performance in a 63-50 win at Anderson, the most caroms by an Engineer men's basketball since 1971. Bibb added three consecutive double-doubles to close November, after recording none in the first three years of his college career. Rose-Hulman returns to action on Wednesday with the team's home opener against Franklin College at 7:30 p.m. |
