2012-13 JOHN R. WOODEN AWARD® PRESENTED BY WENDY’S® ANNOUNCED ON ESPN

Atlanta, Georgia (April 4, 2013)— The John R. Wooden Award® presented by Wendy’s, the preeminent men’s collegiate basketball player of the year award, will be presented tomorrow on ESPN by Coach John Wooden’s grandson, Greg, on behalf of the Los Angeles Athletic Club. Greg Wooden will make the announcement on ESPN SportsCenter at 11:15 am EDT/8:15 am PDT and present the winner with the Wooden Award Trophy whose unique design was inspired by Coach Wooden’s idea of the “total basketball player.” The 37th Annual Wooden Award Gala presented by Wendy’s, honoring the men’s and women’s Wooden All American Teams, will take place Friday April 12 at the Los Angeles Athletic Club.

Voters include hundreds of national college basketball media who selected and ranked 10 players. All players proved that they are making progress toward graduation and are maintaining at least a cumulative 2.0 GPA. Voters were asked to take into account performance during the regular season and postseason through the first three rounds of the NCAA tournament, as well as a player’s character and academic performance, essential components of an outstanding player.
