Same with IU's starting 5. Goes to show how dangerous Maryland and Indiana can be on any given night, especially when they are at full strength.
This is the complete list of both media and coaches. Amazing that the entire Terp starting lineup were honored. Shyanne Sellers win 6th player by both media and coaches.
I'm expecting Indiana to be more like what we saw at the beginning of conference play at the tournament. Really looking forward to watching these games over the weekend.
I can’t believe Reese was not a unanimous first team selection. She’s been the most consistent player for MD this entire season.

Agreed! You know how good Clark and Hillmon had to be to keep Reese from even entering the B1G POY conversation?! She’s got the numbers for a winner in most conferences in most seasons.
Reese doesn't get enough love. She's had a phenomenal year and seems like a fantastic teammate. Always encouraging others and hyping them up.
Julie Pospíšilová was honorable mention. There seems to be a tradition of making sure at least one player on every team gets some sort of recognition, even if it's just HM. Wisconsin getting ousted by Illinois really isn't a surprise. The Illini split the season series with the Badgers, winning one game by as much as 21. Not much separation between the bottom four in this league.Conspicuously absent from all of those lists are any players from Wisconsin. This is Malisa’s first year. She pretty much had to go with the returning players.
She finished ranked 11th in the conference standings, 8-21/5-13. Her team may want to visit The Wizard” over the summer. The Badgers lost today to a 7-19/1-13 - fourteen seed Illanois team that outscored them 25-10 in the 3rd quarter. Final: 75-66 Illinois. No one expected them to win the tournament, but also no one expected them to be sent home by the worst team in the conference.
Pretty good first season for Marisa, especially considering how much the team improved compared to those early season losses. She also won more conference games her first year than Tsipis did in any year of his tenure.Conspicuously absent from all of those lists are any players from Wisconsin. This is Malisa’s first year.

Same. Just had to be careful when on a call as it was a nail biter!
Dont know about Brown but I know Rutgers lost Shug Dickson in 2nd half to foot injury. That hurt
I overheard that when I turned it on. Very unfortunate as Rutgers seemed to be clicking finally.
I’ll continue to follow Wisconsin as long as Marisa is there. As she turns the roster over with more of her players, I expect her to become more competitive and put more w’s in the win column. On Wisconsin.
Apparently Browne aggravated a previous hip injury while drawing a charge in Indiana's last regular season game. She had surgery on the hip in this most recent offseason. Moren said she should be back tomorrow. I'm not sure if Moren is serious or just doesn't want to show her cards to Maryland before she has to.
These are exciting matchups with definite upset potential. 5-seed Indiana split the season series with 4-seed Maryland. 7-seed Northwestern split the season series with 2-seed Iowa, and Iowa needed overtime to win the game they did. 6-seed Nebraska ran 3-seed Michigan out of the gym in their only meeting this year.
Not really....I never thought they were top dog at any point during this season.
Feels like Iowa’s to lose at this point.
I don't know. I can easily see all 4 remaining teams winning it all.
