Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year Awarded for the most outstanding basketball player in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Country United States First awarded 1972 Currently held by C. J. Reed, Bethune-Cookman The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year is an annual basketball award given to the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference's (MEAC) most outstanding player. The award was first given following the 1971–71 season. The most recent winner is C. J. Reed, who was a senior point guard and played for Bethune-Cookman. There has never been a tie for co-player of the year in the award's history, nor has there been a national player of the year. Two players have been named the MEAC Player of the Year three times: Marvin Webster of Morgan State (1973–75) and Joe Binion of North Carolina A&T (1982–84). The school with the most all-time honorees is North Carolina A&T, which has had nine winners, but none since 1988. Three current members of the MEAC have never had a winner: Maryland–Eastern Shore, North Carolina Central and Savannah State.
