Twenty men’s seniors from all five Division I conferences have been selected as candidates for the 2012 Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award.
An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School, the award “focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.”
The winner will be announced during the Frozen Four next April in Tampa.
The 20 candidates will be narrowed to 10 finalists midway through the regular season and those 10 names will be placed on the official ballot. Ballots will be distributed through a nationwide voting system to media, Division I men’s coaches and fans.
