“It has been an absolute joy watching Anthony play this year. Especially considering that he’s just a freshman. Regardless of records and individual achievement, the one thing Coach Rupp wanted out of a player was for him to make a difference in the game so that the team could win. That’s exactly what Anthony has done this year for UK.; and, the fact that the only two Kentucky players to have won this award in 40 years have come during John Calipari’s three years is a testament to his recruiting prowess,” said Gerry Calvert, Club spokesperson.[/I][/FONT][/COLOR]

The Rupp Awards awarded by the Commonwealth Athletic Club of Kentucky, a non-profit organization established in 1972 by players and associates of former UK head coach Adolph Rupp. The awards are determined by a select national voting panel consisting of over 80 sportswriters, coaches and athletic directors representing every major Division I conference and all geographic regions of the country.
