Senior Sean Baptiste was named to the All-Northeast Conference Second Team for the second time in his career.

Baptiste has been a terrific offensive performer for Fairleigh Dickinson throughout his star-studded career. Playing bigger than his 6'3" listed height, Baptiste's potent inside-outside game may be unmatched in the conference. Few guards score more points in the paint off drives to the hoop, yet he has always had the ability to step back and effortlessly drill shots from outside the arc.

For the second year in a row, the North Brunswick, NJ resident led all NEC players in scoring during league play with 18.8 ppg, and ranks sixth overall with 16.4 ppg. Baptiste also hit 60 three-pointers during the regular season for the playoff bound Knights and rates eighth among conference leaders with 2.1 treys per outing. His gritty play in and around the hoop also resulted in 5.6 rpg, the second-best mark on the club.

Baptiste, a two-time Choice Hotels NEC Player of the Week in 2009-10, now ranks 50th on the NEC career scoring list with 1,511 points. He recently became the 26th player in league history, and only seventh in FDU history, to reach 1,500 points and 500 rebounds.
