#BIGEASTwbb Weekly Honors (2.24.25): UConn Sweeps Women’s Basketball Awards

NEW YORK – UConn redshirt senior guard Paige Bueckers averaged 23.0 points, 5.5 rebounds and 7.5 assists in a 2-0 week to be named the BIG EAST Player of the Week. UConn freshman forward Sarah Strong averaged 13 points on .580 shooting from the floor to receive freshman of the week honors for...

I think both Paige and Sarah have locked up BE POY and FOY.

Paige won POW honors 5 times. No one else has more than 2. Sarah won the FOW honors 8 times. Eads has won it 5. She's a great player too. I also think Sarah is BE 1st team as well. Does the BE have a 2nd team, or just honorable mentions? I think Azzi is in one of those categories. Sarah went thru her slump but seems to have come out the other side of it. 2 great players will certainly be honored at the end of the season...

Of course there is only 1 honor they care about - hoisting the NC trophy (actually 3 - winning the BE regular season, winning the BET, and winning the NC)...

I think Sarah should win defensive player of the year.

There’s a 1st team, 2nd team, and honorable mentions. Last year’s honorees below

UConn will be well represented.

As always.

UConn will be well represented.

Azzi, Chen, and Shade. Possible second team or honorable mention selections. Maybe I am underestimating Azzi, but I don’t think she has played many conference games this season. And if Strong doesn’t win defensive player of the year in the conference; I think KK is a contender in that category.

Ashlynn probably has a good shot at 6th player. KK would be close, but her scoring is a bit lower.

Do you know if there is a requirement for how many games a player has not start? Because Ash started at the beginning of the year and when Azzi was out for a couple of games later on.

Sarah should be in the conversation of NCAA Freshman Year of the Year.

Ash has only started 3 Big East games this season, so I believe that she is eligible for the 6th man award.

Nitpicker is back...wouldn't it be more correct if the thread title was POW and FOW?
When I just saw this thread, I thought it was a new thread and the Player of the Year and Freshman of the Year awards had been leaked.
