Even with one of the stronger starting fives in the country, Hubert Davis had the luxury of not seeing much drop-off when turning to his bench. In fact, there were many occasions in which the reserves provided a significant lift for the team. Jalen Washington and Jae’Lyn Withers each had moments throughout the season where they shined, as did Paxson Wojcik in a slightly more limited role. However, the most consistently effective player to do it was Seth Trimble, which is why he is our sixth man of the year.
Trimble brought a unique element to the lineup as he was the team’s best on-ball defender.
