Marcus Darrel Ginyard (born May 8, 1987) is an American former professional basketball player. He played college basketball for the North Carolina Tar Heels after a high school career at Bishop O'Connell High School in Arlington County, Virginia.
High school career
[edit]Ginyard attended Bishop Denis J. O'Connell High School where he was coached by Joseph Wootten. Ginyard started all four years while there, leaving with 116 wins to only 19 losses during his tenure there. His accolades include 3 Virginia Independent Schools Division I state champions (2002, 2003, 2005), MVP of Alhambra Invitational, MVP of the 2004 GlaxoSmithKline Holiday Invitational, first-team All-Metro by the Washington Post, first-team All-Northern Virginia, Virginia Independent Schools Player of the Year, and Gatorade Player of the Year and Mr. Basketball in Virginia. Ginyard's high school statistics include 1,615 points (14.2 per game), 520 rebounds (4.6 per game), 298 steals, and 289 assists.[1]
College career
[edit]While at the University of North Carolina, Ginyard became known as a defensive specialist. During his career, he was defensive player of the game 20 times out of the 107 games that he played. He started 55 of those 107 games. In the 2006–07 and 2007–08 seasons, Ginyard was voted the University of North Carolina's defensive player of the year. In addition, he was voted to the media and coaches' Atlantic Coast Conference all-defensive teams in the 2007–08 season, as well as Atlantic Coast Conference All-Tournament Team honors for the same year. Ginyard's game was not restricted to his defensive abilities either, evident in the fact that he scored over 600 points in his career. His versatility was useful as wellwhile in college, and he played four out of five positions.[2] However, early in his senior season (2008–2009) Ginyard sustained a stress fracture in his left foot that forced him to take a medical redshirt.[3] The Tar Heels men's basketball team won the 2009 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament, with Ginyard supporting the team as the "No. 1 Cheerleader," according to teammate Bobby Frasor.[4]
