Dillard, a 2008 product of Homewood-Flossmoor High School in the Chicago area, leads UD in scoring (15.3), assists (4.5), 3-pointers made (53), free throws made (137), free throw percentage (.895) and minutes (32.8).  He is second in UD history in career free throw percentage (.863, 252-292) and career assist average (5.3).  This award was Dillard's fifth MVP award in two years in a Dayton uniform.  He was also the 2011 Old Spice Classic MVP, last year's co-MVP with Chris Johnson and a two-time Blackburn/McCafferty MVP in wins over Xavier.

Dillard is the 16th Flyer to earn multiple team MVP honors.  Dillard, Dave Colbert (another two-year transfer) and Henry Finkel are the only players to be named MVP in every season they played at UD.

The White-Allen Most Valuable Player Trophy is sponsored by Tim White and White-Allen Auto Group, Inc.  The award is selected by members of the team. The White-Allen Trophy has been awarded annually since 1953.  White-Allen now sponsors the MVP award for UD's men's and women's basketball, football and volleyball teams. 

Dillard was also the winner of the Alex Schoen Memorial Free Throw Trophy as UD's top free throw shooter.  The Schoen Trophy is named in honor of Alex Schoen, Sr., the captain of UD's first varsity basketball team in 1903-04. Awarded since 1950, it is sponsored by Alex Schoen, Jr.  It goes to the UD player with the highest FT% with a minimum of 1.5 free throws per game attempted.  Dillard's current .895 FT% is the fifth-best single-season mark at UD.
