BOYS BASKETBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR MIKE SMITH

BY ERIC VAN DRIL I Pioneer Press

This year, senior point guard Mike Smith and his teammates lifted the Fenwick boys basketball team to heights it hadn't experienced since the late 1990s. The Friars matched a school record with 28 wins. They won the Chicago Catholic League's regular season and tournament titles, defeated Simeon in one of the best games of the 2015-16 season and reached a Class 3A sectional final. Smith, the Pioneer Press All-Area Boys Basketball Player of the Year, was a major reason why. The 5-foot-9 point guard finished second to Morgan Park senior Charlie Moore in voting for Illinois Mr. Basketball. Smith, a Burr Ridge resident, ended his career with more than 1,800 career points - second-most in school history behind Corey Maggette, who played 14 years in the NBA. Pioneer Press freelance sports reporter Eric Van Dril caught up with Smith on Monday, March 28. They discussed Smith's recent commitment to Columbia, his NBA aspirations and more.
