Darby Walters Medal
With his scoring exploits this season, there could only be one winner of this medal. Dylan Scoggins won in a landslide, with 14 votes, leading both Rieffel and Shishaev on 8 votes.
Scoggins averaged 14.9 points per game, shot over 60% from the field, drained a few threes, and also managed to average an assist per game as well.
Scoggins was consistent all season, but his best game undoubtably came against India, where he scored 27 points, and grabbed 17 rebounds, including 7 offensive.
Thanks to his current manager (for now), Sterling_Archer, for keeping him in good gameshape, and the team that drafted and trained him, which has sadly gone bot!
Rudolph Radford Medal
This one went to Scott Schnieder, by 4 votes from Vladimir Shishaev, with Emori Faletoese a further 4 votes back.
The impact of Schnieder is difficult to highlight on the stat sheet. But there were numerous games where one opposing big man went nuts, but the other was well held thanks to Scotty. He averaged 6.6 rebounds, 0.67 steals, and 0.25 blocks.
Probably the best example of Schnieder's defensive brilliance was the second game against Japan. While the opposing PFs went 16-23, the opposing centres were smashed by Schnieder, and went a combined 5-21 - remarkable given we were up against a crunching LI team.
Thanks to both aussie_dude for keeping him on good gameshape, and harison.m of the harison heat for (I assume) doing the initial training on Scott.
Jackson Mansfield Medal
Drum roll?
Big Scott Schnieder takes this one out as well. I've noted Schnieder's defensive efforts above, but he also had a good season offensively, averaging 12 ppg on just over 60% shooting. This combination of offense and defense gets Schnieder the medal this season, by just one vote over Scoggins.

21. Scott Schnieder
