With the first half of the Mountain West schedule in the books, it's time to reveal my midseason picks for the various individual and all-Conference awards. I considered overall and MW-only performances in making today's selections, but the actual postseason awards will be limited to Conference-only statistics. Beg to differ? Think I've missed the mark? How do my picks stack up against your favorites? You can leave a comment below on my blog, email me at Mick@TheMWC.com, or send me a message on Twitter @MWCMick.

ALL-MW MEN'S BASKETBALL

• Mike Moser, F, So., UNLV - Moser is third in the nation with a league-leading average of 11.7 rebounds per game, trailing only Siena's O.D. Anosike (12.9 rpg) and Kansas' Thomas Robinson (11.8). He is fourth in the MW in scoring (14.7 ppg) and has recorded double-doubles in six of his last seven games. He leads the MW and is 10th nationally with 12 double-doubles.

• Jamaal Franklin, G, So., San Diego State - Franklin is the only player in the Mountain West to rank in the top three in both scoring and rebounding for all games (16.0 ppg,1st; 7.2 rpg, 3rd) and conference games only (18.0 ppg, 2nd; 9.3 rpg, 2nd). He has reached double figures in scoring in a career-high 11 straight games and has seven double-doubles in his last 10 games. During that 10-game stretch, Franklin has averaged a team-high 17.9 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.4 steals.

• Leonard Washington, F, Jr., Wyoming - Washington has been in double figures in all nine games for the Cowboys since Jan. 1. He has scored more than 20 points twice during that span, including a 32-point effort against Colorado State on Jan. 21. He is currently one of three players in the MW, along with Moser and Franklin, to rank in the top 10 for all games in points (13.2), rebounds (6.5) and blocks (1.1). In Conference games only, Washington ranks first in field-goal percentage (.577) and second in scoring (17.0 ppg).

• Chase Tapley, G, Jr., San Diego State - Tapley, who is second in the league in scoring (15.9) and first in steals (2.09), has already surpassed his scoring total from both his freshman and sophomore seasons. He has reached double figures in scoring in a career-high 17 straight games. In all games, Tapley ranks first in minutes played (33.3), second in 3-point field-goal percentage (.433), third in field-goal percentage (.475) and fifth in 3-point field goals made (2.3).

• Anthony Marshall, G, Jr. UNLV - Marshall, who at 6-foot-3 is UNLV's second-leading rebounder (4.6 rpg), ranks among the top 10 players in the league in assists (No. 2, 5.0), assist-to-turnover ratio (No. 3, 1.7), steals (No. 6, 1.6) and free-throw percentage (No. 9, 73.3). He ranks second on the team in scoring (14.9 ppg), has two double-doubles to his credit this season and has reached double figures in scoring in nine of his last 11 games.

• Player of the Year: Mike Moser, UNLV.

• Newcomer of the Year: Mike Moser, UNLV.

• Freshman of the Year: Anthony Drmic, F, Boise State.
Drmic is the only freshman in the league to rank among the top 20 in scoring (11th, 12.5 ppg) and rebounding (4.9 rpg). He also leads all MW freshmen in 3-point field-goal percentage (.350) and 3-point field goals made (2.33).

• Coach of the Year: Steve Fisher, San Diego State.
When you lose four starters from a Sweet 16 team, one of them a first-round NBA draft pick, and still manage to find yourself ranked among the top-15 teams in the nation, that's not merely remarkable, it's ridiculous. Fisher, last year's National Coach of the Year, has designated assistant head coach Brian Dutcher as the program's head-coach-in-waiting. At this rate, Dutcher could be waiting a while.

ALL-MW WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

• Courtney Clements, G, Jr., San Diego State - Clements, the league's leading scorer (16.6 ppg), has a MW-best eight 20-point games. She has scored at least 17 points in 14 contests and has reached double-figures in all but three games. Clements also ranks third in the MW in free-throw percentage (.839), 3-point field goals made (2.2) and is fourth in 3-point field-goal percentage (.366).

• Chaundra Sewell, F, Jr., Wyoming - The team's lone returning starter this season, Sewell has posted a MW-leading nine double-doubles. In all games, she ranks second in rebounding (8.9 rpg), seventh in scoring (13.4 ppg) and fifth in field-goal percentage (.457). Sewell is the league leader in offensive rebounds with an average of 3.8 per game.

• Kim Mestdagh, G/F, Sr., Colorado State - Mestdagh, the MW Preseason Player of the Year, has been in double figures in 21 of CSU's 23 games. In all games, she ranks first in the MW in steals (2.7), second in 3-point field goals made (2.3), third in scoring (15.3 ppg) and assists (3.7), and is fifth in free-throw percentage (.828) and assist-to-turnover ratio (1.0).

• Chelsea Hopkins, G, Jr., San Diego State - Hopkins is averaging 6.1 assists per game, a figure that ranks 12th nationally and is a full 2.0 more than any player in the league. She also leads the MW and ranks in the top 30 nationally in assist-to-turnover ratio (2.0). A main component on a first-place team that put together its longest win streak (13) in 17 years, Hopkins has had four double-digit rebound games this season and is SDSU's third-leading scorer at 9.4 points per game.

• Sam Martin, F, So., Colorado State - In all games, Martin ranks first in the MW in field-goal percentage (.546) and second in free-throw percentage (.880). She is the league's sixth-leading scorer (13.6 pgg), having posted 13 double-digit scoring games and recording two double-doubles.

• Player of the Year: Courtney Clements, San Diego State.

• Newcomer of the Year: Chelsea Hopkins, San Diego State.

• Freshman of the Year: Kayla Woodward, Wyoming
Woodward has been stellar in league play, where she ranks second in field-goal percentage (53.3 percent), third in scoring (17.8 ppg), sixth in free-throw percentage (.810), sixth (tied) in rebounds (6.6 rpg) and seventh in steals (1.8). In all games, she ranks 12th in the league in scoring (12.0 ppg).

• Coach of the Year: Beth Burns, San Diego State.
At 7-1, the first-place Aztecs are off to their best start in league play since the 1997 squad also was 7-1 and went on to post a 15-1 mark en route to the regular-season conference title. SDSU has five more victories than it had all of last season. This is the fourth time in the last five years the Aztecs have at least 14 wins after being unable to reach that mark once in the previous 10 seasons. The Aztecs' loss to TCU last Saturday, which snapped a 13-game win streak, was the team's first setback in nearly two months. The win streak is the ninth-best in the nation this season and tied for fourth-longest in school history.
