This means Aaliyah gets on the wall, right??

 

[From France]

No, because AE is on the second team, to earn the Huskies of Honor you have to earn a first team award.
That's why WBCA is so important, they have a ten member 1st team.
But for Aaliyah to be on the 2nd team in USWBA is a good sign for her to be in the WBCA ten, well I hope so

pretty sure it is first team AA to get on the wall

Its first and second team I believe

I am guessing no. Only because the article stated that Aaliyah is a repeat second team pick. If her selection was not enough last year, well...

She’ll have to be chosen as 1 of 10 WBCA All-Americans.

Past Teams - NCAA Division I

*Eastman Kodak Company became the first corporate sponsor of collegiate women’s basketball in 1975, sponsoring the first women’s basketball coaches clinic in conjunction with the AIAW championship and the the first-ever Kodak All-America team. The latter was the first All-America team selected...

That is impressive to have two of the best 10 players in the country on one team. To me AE has been one of the best players in UConn history even though she hasn't been a first team AA yet. She has been the one constant on the team since she arrived (I guess Nika too) that has led to UConn's success. I really enjoy watching her play, she really looks like she loves the game and plays it at a super high level.

I don't even know if USBWA counts since Megan Walker was on the first team ans isn't on the Huskies of Honor

Did she finish her college degree? I remember Geno used to have a policy about that

 

[Geew1992]

I don’t think she’s graduated yet. Last I heard she was still working towards it

 

[MSGRET]

I don't even know if USBWA counts since Megan Walker was on the first team ans isn't on the Huskies of Honor

The reason why is that she needs to finish her college degree. That is a requirement for inclusion to the Huskies of Honor.

 

[From France]

Perhaps that's it because she also made the WBCA & AP 1st teams.

Then she is more a missing than Ashja Jones, Laura Lishness, Peggy Walsh or others.

I would think it counts since they list it in the Media Guide (along with WBCA and AP).

But as someone else posted you also have to graduate. Not sure she did.

Edwards was 3rd team last year.

 

[From France]

3 to 2 to WNBA Rookie team , seems it appeares Geno said in an interview only one senior will come back

 

[Centerstream]

Edwards was 3rd team last year.

Thanks, I read the article before I posted and when it said repeat, I just took it to mean 2nd team.

 

[PJCLaw]

Its first and second team I believe

Nope, only 1st team...USBWA, WBCA, or AP.

 

[From France]

Naismith, also, I think - But it should be rare being on the Naismith without being on the others

Gee.....I thought there were only five players at a time on a basketball team.............

Perhaps Caitlin lobbied for a good old-fashion Iowa 6 on 6 team?

What about the Womens Basketball Associaton Coaches ?

That's the WBCA, I think.

I think it’s an absolute travesty that Cardoso is first team over Hidalgo or Edwards! Especially Hidalgo, if I’m totally honest, but really either one of them!

 

[Geew1992]

Is tuck in the wall? If so, what team did she make?

Tuck is on the wall. They had her unveiling ceremony as part of the Gampel return pep rally after the last national title.

I believe the WBCA team is 10 players for first team so Liyah has a good shot there. If they went by natural position she is definitely one of the top 2 power forwards in the country.

Morgan was a WBCA AA in 2016 & 2nd team AP & Espn
