ACC leads the way with 10 selections, followed by the SEC, Big Ten, and Pac-12 with 5 each. Big 12 and the American have 2 each, and the Big East rounds it out with 1.

Pretty nice list!

No Collier ? Terrible oversight.

I would genuinely be surprised if she wasn't on the midseason list.

Hoping this will add fuel to Collier's fire tonight!

Good thing we didn't see 2 from the Vols....Russell should be on there instead of DD

Wooden list is based on a preseason poll of media. Based solely on last years statistics Napheesa didn't belong on this list. Based on this seasons performance she is one of the top 30 players.

Someone please explain to me how on this planet spinning on it's axis and orbiting the sun does Deshields make this list? And please don't say because she has so much potential lest I lose my lunch. And Russell should definitely replace her on the list.

DD should not even be on 1st or 2nd team SEC list. She is hurting Tennessee more than helping them IMO!

They missed Napheesa AND Gabby.
