We're about midway through the year--who right now is in the running for POY?
As of right now I think Clark is the runaway choice (27 points, 7 boards, 7 assists) with Reese as a dark horse if she keeps up her insane numbers (24 points, 16 rebounds, 60% FG) in SEC play.
Other contenders on the outside looking in:
Aliyah Boston-I don't want to reopen the can of worms of is she deserving or not, fact is she's best player on the #1 team and is the reigning POY so she'll get consideration. I think numbers are there for AA honors, but not for POY. Would not be my pick at this time.
Cameron Brink-she's Stanford's standout this year, but I don't see her getting POY awards. Numbers and consistency isn't there as of right now.
Olivia Miles-Great numbers, Notre Dame is a top 5-10 team. Can't see a strong argument for her beating Clark unless she leads ND to #1 seed going into the tournament.
Not legitimate POY contenders but having great years:
Mackenzie Holmes
Taylor Mikesell
Maddy Siegrist
Elizabeth Kitley
Alissa Pili
Ashley Joens
Aaliyah Edwards
Diamond Miller
Leigha Brown
Haley Jones
