Ladies and Gentleman, my name is JERRY SCHERWIN and it is the greatest privilege of my long and industrious career here at SB Nation to serve as THE advocate for the Bird Incarnate... the conqueror of divisional basketball...the reigning, defending, UNDISPUTED Missouri Valley Conference Larry Bird Player of the Year, Missouri Valley Conference Newcomer of the Year... THE ONLY Missouri Valley Conference player since the aforementioned Larry Bird to achieve 600 points, 180 assists and 70 steals in a single season AND the ONLY player to accomplish that feat this season in ALL of the NCAA. A TWO TIME second team MIAA all-league award winner and the MIAA Freshman of the Year.
Ladies and Gentleman...Bennett Stirtz
