No, it's just 1st Team AA. Can be AP, WBCA or (assumption here because it is listed in Media Guide) USBWA. For example Swin Cash was 1st Team WBCA and USBWA, and 2nd Team AP in 2002. Steph Dolson was 1st Team WBCA and USBWA in 2013 and 2014, and 3rd Team and 2nd Team AP in 2013 and 2014. Also, Hartley, Tuck, GWilliams, KML never made 1st Team AP. |

KLM and Hartley are both on the Wall of Honor. I think if you are first or second team AA you make it.

I always thought that it would be difficult for Aaliyah to squeeze into the first team. I was actually concerned about Paige until she finally turned on the jets in February. I'm old school. Only first team counts in my mind. Great season for Aaliyah though. Congrats to her !

And 1st team is what counts for UCONN also. |

Sometimes you gotta take off your National Flag Blue colored glasses when you read. (not everyone is out to get you.... all the time....just most the time) Well at least you know sompthin.  |

Nika is an honorable mention? That is impossible. Everybody knows she doesn't have near the talent of all the other players on this UConn team. The AP voters must have drunk to kool-aid. |

How did Aaliyah fall to honorable mention? The only real question is why she isn't first team AA.

Kind of exactly what I expected looking at it realistically. Clark , Paige and Brink were locks. Hidalgo and Watkins had monster seasons. You can always argue about the 2nd and 3rd team. But, hard to argue about the first team.

How did Aaliyah fall to honorable mention? The only real question is why she isn't first team AA. How are the best players identified? A big factor is the team they play for. Maybe we should use reverse analysis and ask how a team with two 1st team AA's could fall to No 18 in the country? That reasoning would also explain how UConn got 3 AA's in the past. If Edwards had played HS ball in the US she would have had some regional support in the media. I don't think there are any Canadians on the selection panel. |

I think AE is REALLY something special and I hope she gets something. So that reminds me: vote!
