PRINCETON, N.J. -- The Ivy League is pleased to announce the fourth annual 16-member class of Legends of Ivy League Basketball. These Legends contributed significantly to—and left a lasting impact on—their respective basketball programs, universities and chosen professions.
This year’s class includes five Ivy League Rookies of the Year, four Ivy League Players or Defensive Players of the Year and 10 1,000-point scorers. It also features an Olympian, the sitting governor of the state of Massachusetts and the current president of Colby-Sawyer College. On the court and in the classroom, this year’s class combined for 35 All-Ivy (19 First Team, 16 Second Team) and four Academic All-Ivy nods.
Each Ivy League institution is represented by one male and one female honoree, as selected by their university athletic department.
“The members of the 2020 Legends of Ivy League Basketball class exemplify the unrivaled experience that our student-athletes receive,” said Executive Director Robin Harris. “These distinguished individuals have accomplished much—on the court, in the classroom and in life—and we look forward to celebrating them at Ivy Madness in March.”
Each legend will be formally honored at the 2020 Ivy League Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments on Saturday, March 14, at Lavietes Pavilion in Cambridge, Mass. A variety of ticket offerings are on sale now via IvyMadness.com.
