Rutgers junior guard Quincy Douby was the recipient of the 73rd Haggerty Award as the 2005-06 All-Met Division I men's college basketball Player of the Year, presented by the National Invitation Tournament and the Met Basketball Writers Association on April 19, 2006 at the annual awards dinner at the Giants Stadium Club.
Named in memory of the co-captain of St. John's University's 1939-40 basketball team, the Frank J. Haggerty Award is one of the oldest awards in college basketball and is presented annually to the most outstanding player among college basketball schools in the New York-New Jersey metropolitan region.
Douby is the second Scarlet Knight to win the Haggerty Award. All-America forward Phil Sellers won it in 1975 and 1976, after leading Rutgers to consecutive appearances in the NCAA Tournament, including the 1976 Final Four. 
Douby led the Big East, and was sixth nationally, in scoring with 25.4 ppg. He ranked third in the Big East with 116 three-point field goals, a 3.5 per game average that was ninth in the NCAA. He set Scarlet Knight single-season records for scoring (839 points) and three-point field goals made (116) along with the single game mark of nine three-pointers.
A First-Team All-Big East selection, he led the league in scoring with 27.0 ppg. in league play, the fourth-highest scoring average in conference history. He was named Honorable Mention All-American by the Associated Press, was named to the CollegeInsider.com All-American team and was named District II Player of the Year by the United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA).
Douby set the Rutgers single-season scoring leader with 839 points in 2005-06, surpassing All-America guard Bob Lloyd for the most points ever scored in a single season by a Scarlet Knight (Lloyd held the single season scoring mark of 809 for 39 years). Douby's 25.4 points per game average was the third-best single season average in Rutgers history. A highlight of Douby's season came on Feb. 1 when he poured in a career-high 41 points vs. Syracuse, hitting 15-of-32 from the floor, including 9-of-17 from beyond the arc. The 41 points is a Carrier Dome record.
The shooting guard was taken in the first round of the NBA draft by the Sacramento Kings. Following a brief NBA career, the Brooklyn native played the majority of his pro career in Europe. Douby has most recently played in Beirut, Lebanon.
