PROVO -- BYU senior guard Lee Cummard was one of 10 players named to the Mountain West Conference Men's Basketball 10th Anniversary Team. Cummard joins UNLV senior guard Wink Adams as the only two current players named to the team.
The team, announced by the MWC Monday, was selected by a combined panel of media, institutional and conference personnel and an on-line fan poll. In order to be eligible for consideration, candidates must have been an All-MWC First Team selection at least once in their careers.
The reigning MWC Player of the Year, Cummard leads a BYU team that has won back-to-back outright regular-season championships and holds the nation's top home victory streak at 47 games. The All-America candidate was the lone Cougar named to the team.
Anniversary teams will be chosen for each of the 19 conference-sponsored sports during the 2008-09 seasons in celebration of the Mountain West's 10th anniversary.
