Shawnta. Lots of great candidates, but Shawnta is the greatest colonial of the modern era.

Might have been Yinka if he had stuck around for a couple more years, but I’m going with Shawnta as well. GW’s only A10 POY.

Clearly Shawnta; I think he has had the greatest influence on our team of any player in GW history.

Re: GW player of the Decade: The 1990s
I'd lean to Shawnta, razor close
Yinka was a dominant force, who lifted GW to 3 NCAA Tourney wins, The Sweet 16, put us on the national stage vs The Fab 5, an NBA lottery pick
Shawnta an exceptional player from day 1, for a tremendous 4 seasons.
Your non Shawnta/Yinka pick would be??
