Related Topics: Athlete, Christopher McGehee

The 2017-18 athletic year was one of the most influential in recent memory. Teams reached heights that had not been experienced in decades, records were broken and awards were handed out. Something worthwhile happened for almost every team.

The Cougar sports staff decided to answer a few questions as they look back on the year.

Which athlete had the best season?

Trenton Whiting: Redshirt senior guard Rob Gray Jr. He led the basketball team to its best season in many years and scored the game-winner against San Diego State in the NCAA Tournament. Gray wasn’t able to get the team to the tournament’s second weekend, but he was able to gain some national recognition for the time he was there.
