Glen Cove High School junior Kewan Beebe received the basketball team's Most Valuable Player award Tuesday at the school's winter sports awards night for a season in which he averaged more than 18 points per game.

"He was thrilled," said Carla D'Ambra, Beebe's gaurdian. "He was surprised because he was a junior - he thought a senior would get it."

D'Ambra said Beebe had been upset after the team lost their playoff game against Jericho High School on February 22.
