Barry, Rai Earn All-Ivy League Honors
3/8/2022 3:01:00 PM | Men's Basketball
First season with two Big Green earning All-Ivy mention since 2014-15
HANOVER, N.H. — The Ivy League announced its postseason awards and All-Ivy League Teams for men's basketball today, and Dartmouth's Brendan Barry and Aaryn Rai were among those included in the honors. Barry was selected for the second team while Rai earned honorable mention as well as a spot on the Academic All-Ivy League Team.
A graduate student from Fair Haven, New Jersey, Barry was seventh in the league in scoring at 14.6 points per game and led the Ancient Eight in minutes played (35.7 per game), 3-pointers overall (85) and on a per-game basis (3.4) and 3-point accuracy among qualified players (.411). He scored in double figures 20 times in the 25 games, topping 20 on five occasions with a high of 26 in an overtime contest at Florida Gulf Coast. But he wasn't just a scorer, leading the team with 47 assists and while his 40 steals ranked third in the conference (1.6 per game). In the final game of the season, Barry also broke the school record for 3-pointers made that had stood for 33 years, ending his career with 244.
Rai, a fifth-year senior from Markham, Ontario, ranked among the top 10 in the Ivy League in scoring (12.3 ppg, 10th), rebounding (7.2 rpg, third), blocked shots (0.6 per game, seventh) and steals (1.2 per game, 10th), one of just two players in the circuit to do so. He scored in double figures on 15 occasions, four times with at least 20, tallying a career-high 27 in an upset win over Penn in the penultimate game of the season. All three of his double-doubles came in the final five games, helping the Big Green win each of those three contests. To earn his place on the Academic All-Ivy League Team, Rai sports a cumulative 3.55 GPA as a neuroscience major.
Princeton forward Tosan Evbuomwan was the unanimous choice as the Player of the Year, Brown forward Jaylan Gainey the Defensive Player of the Year and Brown guard Kino Lilly Jr. the Rookie of the Year. Cornell's Brian Earl was chosen as the Coach of the Year for guiding the Big Red to the Ivy League Tournament after being picked to finish seventh in the preseason poll.
Dartmouth, picked sixth in that same preseason poll, finished the season 9-16 overall and 6-8 in conference play to put them in fifth place, one game behind Cornell for the final spot at the Ivy League Tournament
Notes: This is the first time Dartmouth has had more than one player earn All-Ivy League honors in the same season since Gabas Maldunas and Alex Mitola made the second team in 2014-15 … the Big Green have had at least one player named to the second team in six of the last seven Ivy League campaigns … Rai is the first Dartmouth player to receive honorable mention since 2006-07.
