OSU's Lake II Named to All-WCC First Team, Sy Gets Honorable Mention
In this story:
The West Coast Conference released their postseason awards for this week ahead of the beginning of the 2026 WCC Men's Basketball Tournament in Las Vegas.
One Beaver was rewarded with a nod to the All-Conference First Team. Josiah Lake II, Oregon State's star junior guard, was named to the group. Lake was Oregon State's leading scorer with 13.1 points per game, along with 4.1 rebounds per game and 4.1 assists per game.
Beavs junior forward Isaiah Sy also earned an Honorable Mention. The French international started 26 of the 30 games that he appeared in this season, averaging 9.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game.
Gonzaga's Graham Ike won Player of the Year, and Santa Clara's Herb Sendek was named Coach of the Year.
Oregon State enter the West Coast Conference Tournament as the No. 4 seed as the Beavs look to send off head coach Wayne Tinkle on a high note.
With a bye into the quarterfinals, the Beavers will face the winner between San Francisco and either Washington State or Portland, depending on Friday's result. That quarterfinal is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. PT on Sunday, March 8, on ESPN2.
