The senior forward averaged 20.9 points, 10.5 rebounds and shot 61.4% during the regular season for the Huskies to earn a spot on The Associated Press women’s basketball All-America team. She was joined on the All-America team Monday by Iowa’s Megan Gustafson, Oregon’s Sabrina Ionescu, Louisville’s Asia Durr and Mississippi State’s Teaira McCowan. She is third on UConn’s all-time scoring list with 2,386 points and third in shooting percentage and fourth in rebounding. McCowan has had a stellar senior season, carrying Mississippi State to the first SEC Tournament title in school history and earning most outstanding player honours in the process. It’s been a work in progress for her to where we are today,” Mississippi State coach Vic Schaefer said.
