About the PrestoSports/Pride of Maryland Player
of the Week Award
Entering its fourth year, the PrestoSports/Pride of Maryland
Player of the Week Award is granted on a weekly basis on behalf of
the Pride of Maryland Tournament Committee. Each week, each of the
nine Pride of Maryland schools have the ability to nominate one
men's basketball player, based upon their on-court accomplishments
over the previous seven days. An esteemed panel of media members
vote to select the most outstanding player of the group. Simply,
the student-athlete with the most votes becomes the
PrestoSports/Pride of Maryland Player of the Week. All
student-athletes who receive votes, but are not named the
PrestoSports/Pride of Maryland Player of the Week, are then named
to the PrestoSports/Pride of Maryland Honor Roll.
The award will be presented on Mondays, beginning on November 23,
2009.
The Pride of Maryland is comprised of the nine NCAA Division III
schools in the state: Frostburg State University, Goucher College,
Hood College, John Hopkins University, McDaniel College, Salisbury
University, St. Mary's College of Maryland, Stevenson University
and Washington College.
