PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Providence College junior forward Ryan Gomes (Waterbury, Conn.) was named to the Basketball Times Second Team All-America squad on Wednesday, March 26. The other players named to the Second Team were Wisconsin point guard Devin Harris, North Carolina wing Rashad McCants, Mississippi State forward Lawrence Roberts and Brigham Young center Rafael Araujo.

For Gomes, who also was named Associated Press First Team All-America, ESPN.com First Team All-America, CBS SportsLine.com First Team All-America, United States Basketball Writers Association First Team All-America, Sporting News First Team All-America, NABC Second Team All-America and College Insider.com All-America, it marks the eighth All-America honor he has earned this season.

Gomes, who led the Friars in scoring (18.9 ppg) and rebounding (9.4 rpg), paced the Friars to a 20-9 mark and a third-place finish in the BIG EAST with an 11-5 record. The team also earned a berth in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2001. In 29 games this season, Gomes registered 13 double-doubles. He also scored 20 or more points 14 times, including a season-high 28 points versus Texas on January 5 and Seton Hall on February 1. He also registered 10 or more rebounds in 15 of the team's 29 contests. In just three seasons of action, Gomes ranks 11th all-time in scoring at Providence with 1,468 points.
