EVANSTON, Ill. – Junior guard Lindsey Pulliam was earned an All-America Honorable Mention by the United States Basketball Writers Association on Monday afternoon.
Pulliam collected her second All-America honor in a week after previously being named AP All-America Honorable Mention last Thursday.
Pulliam is the first Wildcat to earn two All-America honors in the same season since Nia Coffey was an honorable mention by the AP and the WBCA in 2017. This is the first year that the USBWA is giving honorable mentions for its All-America honors.
The Silver Spring, Md. native averaged career-highs across the board with 18.8 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. Pulliam led the Big Ten with nine games in which she scored 25 or more points. She also improved her three-point shooting over 15 percentage points from her sophomore season.
She scored 563 points on the season, the tenth-most in a season in program history. After three years, her career point total stands at 1,637, just three away from the top-ten all-time scoring list.
