Pringle, Smiley named all-conference selections

Salve Regina has landed two players on the 2012-2013 Commonwealth Coast Conference All-CCC men’s basketball team. Isiah Pringle ’14 returns for a second straight year on the second team while William Smiley ’13 joins his teammate as an honorable mention selection.

“Very happy that they got conference recognition,” said Sean Foster, who became the winningest head coach in the history of Salve Regina men’s basketball last month. “Isiah has been very consistent the past two years as a scorer for us. With Will, he’s been a grinder who’s really versatile playing different roles for us, and he’s done very well being a difficult player for other teams to guard.”

Both players have helped the team reach the conference championship game each of the past two years, winning it all in 2010-2011.

Pringle ranks fifth in the league in scoring (16.5 points per game) and second in free throw percentage. His 93.9 free throw percentage is a school record for a single season. Leading the team in double-doubles (five), Smiley became the seventh Seahawk to have a single game with 32 or more points, posting his career-high during a win at Nichols College last week.
