Jimmer Fredette, who became a one-name star in his senior year at BYU, was selected as The Associated Press' player of the year after leading the nation in scoring and the Cougars to one of their best seasons. Fredette was on a team that spent the second half of the season ranked in the top 10 of the coaches' and media's polls and had BYU contending for a No. 1 NCAA tournament seed. "It's been quite a ride and it's been a lot of fun and I wouldn't take anything back," Fredette said. "I had quite the career at BYU. There were a lot of ups and downs, but there were a lot more ups this year." The Cougars won the Mountain West Conference regular-season title and lost to San Diego State in the tournament final. A No. 3 seed in the NCAA tournament, they lost to Florida in overtime in the round of 16 and finished with a 32-5 record. Read more: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=6280416
