Drew Barham joined Gonzaga's men's basketball team in the fall of 2012 as a graduate of the University of Memphis. He immediately made his presence known throughout the Spokane community, volunteering at numerous charitable events and in local schools and shelters. Academically, he elected to pursue his Master's Degree in Organizational Leadership, earning a perfect 4.0 grade-point-average twice in his four semesters at GU. A contributing member of the 2013 Gonzaga program, which went undefeated in WCC play and earned the program's inaugural No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, made appearances in all 35 games for the Bulldogs this past season, where he shot an astonishing 48 percent from beyond the arc in helping the Bulldogs to WCC regular-season and tournament titles as the Bulldogs advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the 16th straight year.

This award was created to recognize a student-athlete who truly exhibits what it means to be a Zag by displaying excellence within their team, the classroom, on campus and in the community. The three nominees were voted on by their peers and team representatives from the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and the office of Student-Athlete Support Services.

P.R.I.D.E. is a friendly competition among Gonzaga's 16 varsity athletic teams meant to promote mutual support and fellowship amongst the athletic teams that make up the Zag family. Now in its sixth year, P.R.I.D.E. has grown to encompass more than 2,600 hours of community service, 6 community-wide charity collections, numerous events and sporting contests and the stellar academic achievement of all our athletic programs. P.R.I.D.E. recognizes student-athletes' commitment to Gonzaga's mission of creating a "mature concern for others" through community outreach and service. Each team has the opportunity to earn P.R.I.D.E. points by attending designated home athletic contests and Life Skills programs, participating in community outreach and from their fall semester team academic achievement. This year's competition was the most heated in the program's history, with the winner ultimately being decided on the final day of the contest. This year's winner donated more than 3,000 items in the yearlong Bring It Home campaign, accounted for nearly half of the monetary donations made in this year's JDRF walk, and logged over half of the community service hours earned through the Athletic Department for the year. For the first time in P.R.I.D.E history, we have co-P.R.I.D.E champions, with both women's soccer and baseball earning this year's honor.
