Carrabino About to Make his Mark

A year ago, the former Ivy League Rookie of the Year became the first Harvard cager to earn Ivy League Player of the Year honors. A first team All-Ivy selection. Carrabino last year held or shared the Harvard lead in scoring (22.0ppg), rebounding (7.3rpg), field goal percentage (90.5) and minutes played (36mpg).

He also ranked first in Ivy League free throw percentage (90.8), and second in both scoring (21.9ppg) and (21.9 ppg) and rebounds (8.4 rpg)

An finally, the player--whose trademarks are the outside jumper and free throw accuracy--finished second in the nation a year ago in free throw shooting percentage (90.5).

"I guess I've won just about all the personal stuff there is to win," says Carrabino, a legitimate pro prospect who is as deadly from the inside as he is from the outside.

"Basically the last step is the team goal," says the player who admit his teammates are as responsible for his success as he is.
