Men's Basketball #2 - Boggs named CCC Rookie of the Year (February 24, 2015)
NEWPORT, R.I. - Student-athletes from all 10 member institutions in the Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) were represented on the 2014-15 All-CCC Men's Basketball Team. In addition to the all-conference team, five major individual award winners and the team sportsmanship award winner were selected, including the Rookie of the Year honor for Salve Regina University freshman Bryce Boggs (Hyde Park, N.Y.).
Guards made up 13 of the 16 all-conference selections, including Salve Regina junior Barrett Hanlon (Hopkinton, Mass.).
Voting for the All-CCC team and each of the major awards was conducted among CCC men's basketball coaches.
A 6-foot-2 guard, Boggs enjoyed a solid debut season in Newport, tying for eighth in the CCC in scoring with 14.0 points per game, a mark that led all Salve Regina players and CCC freshmen who played in at least 75% of their team's games. The talented newcomer started 23 of 25 contests for the Seahawks, tops among all Salve players, while also averaging 5.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.6 steals per game. Besides leading his team in minutes played (716) and points (335), Boggs led the Salve squad in field goals (124), free throws (76) and steals (39), while also placing second on the team in rebounds (128), assists (44). A two-time CCC Rookie of the Week, Boggs scored in double figures 18 times, including five games with more than 20 points.
"Bryce Boggs had a tremendous initial year with our program and showed the ability to have a strong impact at the offensive end," said 13th-year head coach Sean Foster. "We look forward to his future in Seahawk blue."
