25 first teamers are too many, it cheapens the award. I'd do 4 teams of 10 apiece to account for the gigantic conference.

 

[vonner]

With that list, it does beg the question, who was left out? j/k, I know there are a lot more players, but still.

 

[GibsonSG]

Really glad to see Hanson getting unanimous recognition for the marked improvement in her game.

Shaffmaster being voted First Team must have really put some of you 'armchair setters' into a rage yesterday.

On awards:

There really should be a front-row defensive award.
