NEW YORK (March 11, 2008)

University of Connecticut sophomore center Hasheem Thabeet (Dar es Salaam, Tanzania) was named the 2007-08 BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year Tuesday evening at a press conference at the Grand Hyatt Hotel.


Thabeet's selection marks the fifth time in six seasons that UConn has had the league's top defensive player and he becomes the fifth Husky to earn the honor, joining Hilton Armstrong (2005-06), Josh Boone (2004-05), Emeka Okafor (2003-04 & 2002-03) and Donyell Marshall (1993-94).


Thabeet is averaging 4.6 blocks per game this season, ranking No. 3 nationally and leading the BIG EAST for the second straight season. He averaged 5.2 blocks per game in league play and his 94 total blocks in BIG EAST play set a new conference record, breaking the old mark of 93 held by Alonzo Mourning of Georgetown, set in 1991-92.


Thabeet was named Monday to the All-BIG EAST Second Team and was also an All-District Second Team selection by the NABC.


The Huskies open play in the BIG EAST Tournament Thursday with a 2:00 p.m. contest against the winner of the Wednesday First Round game between West Virginia and Providence.
