Jordan Hawkins, Adama Sanogo named First Team All-Big East

The Big East announced its all-conference teams on Sunday. Jordan Hawkins and Adama Sanogo were named to the league’s first team while two Husky freshmen also earned all-league honors.

UConn was the only school to get two players on the six-man first team, while it had the second-highest total of players between the first and second team behind Marquette, which had three. Hawkins and Sanogo were not unanimous selections, however, indicating that they’re probably not candidates to win the league’s Player of the Year award.

Hawkins led the league in scoring in conference games at 17.3 points per game and is the fourth Husky to do so after Chris Smith, Donyell Marshall, and Richard Hamilton.
