there are like 12 names on the all conference team….what?
Math not your big thing??? There are 8 individuals/8 schools. 12 names –WHAT???
Joanie W. is correct.
These 12 names:
1. Stefanie Dolson, UConn
2. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, UConn,
3. Brittany Hrynko, DePaul
4. Sugar Rodgers, Georgetown
5. Shoni Schimmel, Louisville
6. Natalie Achonwa, Notre Dame
7. Skylar Diggins, Notre Dame
8. Kayla McBride, Notre Dame
9. Nadirah McKenith, St. John’s
10. Shenneika Smith, St. John’s
11. Andrea Smith, South Florida
12. Kayla Alexander, Syracuse
I think Joanie was asking why so many.
So, don’t be so condesending…
Congratulations to all Uconn players for being mentioned. Tuck deserved mention on the Freshman team, but maybe she lacked sufficient number of games.
Could ND have gotten more names in?? I think the forgot M.Kowlakowski –the Janitor.
Tuck deserved to be on the Freshman team. Maybe she didn’t play enough games to get on the list.
Could ND have gotten more people in the awards? M Kowalkowski missed being on the ND list by a tiny amount.
M Kowalkowski–the Pavalion janitor.
I voted Buck, Doty, and Hartley first team
