PRINCETON, N.J. – The Ivy League announced its postseason awards for men's basketball Wednesday morning and senior Richmond Aririguzoh and sophomore Jaelin Llewellyn of the Princeton University men's basketball team were among the honorees.

Aririguzoh averaged 12.0 points and 7.4 rebounds per game while shooting .617 from the field this season, which ranks second in the Ivy League and eighth all-time in school history.
