Lamb should be first team.

Either McKeever or Frederick deserve 2nd team.

Hard to see Monica not at least get an HM. She does so much

Surprised they gave Sjerven the DPOY over Nelson (not because she didnt deserve it)

Agree with all of this.  On paper, Nelson's all-around stats are insane, but Sjerven is a dominant player on one of the most dominant teams in Summit WBB history, so I'd say she gets the benefit of the doubt.  There are many more offensive than defensive stats, so it's a much more subjective evaluation anyway.  Well deserved.

that's a typo from the article.  Zars is Newcomer, Nelson is Frosh.  The only non-Coyote awards, and they messed it up.  I'd probably be a little miffed.
