On the first team AA status - was the ten player first team always available. I thought that was a more recent innovation say in the last ten years. It seems there has been a proliferation of AA teams since around 2000 - don't remember when Wooden started for women, and I think a few others appeared after they started for the men much earlier.
If a ten player team was not available say in 2000, might Uconn go back at some point and look at the second team of a five player first team and add a name or two.

Specific to the Jones. Cash, Williams period - Cash had a more unique skill set and averaged in the 27+ minutes as a senior and 23+ as a junior. Jones was at 24+ and Williams at 21+ as seniors, but as juniors and sophomores were both under 20. That definitely hurt their national profile.

USBWA had 10 player teams as far back as 1997
WBCA (Kodak) had 10 player teams as far back as 1991
