NCAA Basketball Tournament Most Outstanding Player

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

At the conclusion of the NCAA men's and women's Division I basketball championships (the "Final Four" tournaments), the Associated Press selects a Most Outstanding Player. The MOP need not be, but almost always is a member of the Championship team, especially since the third place game was eliminated after 1981. The last man to win the award despite not being on the Championship team was Hakeem Olajuwon in 1983; the last woman to do so was Dawn Staley in 1991. This award is not meant to be considered a Most Valuable Player award, although it is sometimes referred to as such.
