Paw Prints – Women’s Roundball Rankings

Junior co-captain Renee Montgomery and sophomore Tina Charles have been named to the preseason top 30 Wooden All-American team. The Huskies are 1 of only 5 teams to have more than one candidate.

In mid-January, the Wooden Award Committee will release the Midseason Top 20 list, followed by the official voting ballot in March consisting of approximately 15 players. In order to be considered for the National Ballot each player must be certified by their university as meeting the Award’s criteria, including making progress toward graduation, and maintaining a cumulative 2.0 GPA. Over 200 voters, comprised of sports media members and women’s college basketball experts from across the nation, will cast their votes for the five-member All-American team and Wooden Award honor as the most outstanding female collegiate basketball player in the nation.
