VESTAL, N.Y. - Binghamton junior point guard
Jeremiah Quigley has been selected to the America East All-Conference Third Team, the league announced Friday morning. Quigley becomes the Bearcats' third all-conference selection in the last two seasons and fifth under head coach
Levell Sanders.
Quigley produced an exceptional season despite running a Binghamton offense that suffered the most season-ending injuries of any program in the country. He led the conference and ranked among the NCAA top-20 in assists (6.4/game) and also was among the league leaders in scoring (14.5 ppg., 5th), steals (36, 7th), field goal percentage (47%, 7th) and minutes played (37.1, 2nd). Quigley currently ranks among the NCAA top-10 in minutes played. He logged 40+ minutes in 14 games, including a season-high 49 minutes in the triple overtime game at UNH.
In the third-to-last game of the season, Quigley tallied 11 assists to break the program's Division I-era record of 173, set by Symir Torrence in 2023-24. Quigley wound up with 192 assists, which is fourth-most overall at Binghamton. Former three-time team MVP Chris Ballerini holds the school record with 217 assists during the 1997-98 year.
"I'm happy JQ is receiving recognition for the way he played this season," Sanders said. "I'm not sure any other player had as much responsibility on his shoulders as he did and he did an amazing job! I'm super happy for him and this will push him to be even better next season!"
In addition to his assist totals, Quigley was the only player in the conference to rank among the top-6 (conference play) in SIX different stat categories. Further, he was the first America East player in 21 years to average more than 14 points and 6 assists in a season - the first since former Northeastern standout and NBA champion JJ Barea did it in 2004-05. Quigley became just the sixth overall player in the league's 48-year history to post 14+ points and 6+ assists.
Despite his 5-foot-10 stature, Quigley compiled six double-doubles, including two with 10+ rebounds. His six "doubles" are the most of any player in the country under 6-feet tall.
