The Associated Press announced its All-American women's basketball players slate on Wednesday. In perhaps the least surprising news of the year, Iowa's Caitlin Clark earned first-team honors, marking her third such appearance. Clark is only the 11th player to earn the honor three times. She's joined by an impressive list, which also includes a pair of freshmen first-team selections.
AP All-American Women's Basketball Teams
First Team AP All-Americans
Caitlin Clark, Iowa
In a season where she became the sport's leading all-time scorer, Clark averaged 31.9 points per game. She also added 8.9 assists per game and 7.3 rebounds per game. The Iowa phenom also led the Hawkeyes to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
The Iowa superstar will be looking for her first NCAA title before heading to the WNBA, but will face a tall task with potential matchups against LSU, UCLA, and more on the way out of Regional 2.
Cameron Brink, Stanford
The 6-foot-4 forward averaged 17.8 ppg and 12.0 rpg, leading the Cardinal to a No. 1 NCAA Tournament seed. Brink has 1,854 points and 1,191 rebounds in her Stanford career. She made the third team two years ago and the second team last year.
Paige Bueckers, UConn
The UConn junior averaged 21.3 ppg and shot 42.4% from 3-point range. Bueckers missed last season due to injury but was previously a first-team All-American as a freshman in 2020-21. She led UConn to a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
JuJu Watkins, USC
The 6-foot-2 freshman guard averaged 27.0 ppg and 7.2 rpg. With 810 points and counting, Watkins is being touted as the heir apparent to Caitlin Clark. She helped USC to the Pac-12 title and a No. 1 NCAA Tournament seed.
Hannah Hidalgo, Notre Dame
Freshman guard Hidalgo is now one of only five freshmen to earn first-team All-American status. She averaged 23.3 ppg, 6.4 rpg, and 5.5 apg. Hidalgo helped Notre Dame earn a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
AP Second Team All-Americans
Elizabeth Kitley, Virginia Tech

Reese has averaged 19.0 ppg and 13.1 rpg in her second season with the defending champions, LSU. The 6-foot-3 Reese earned first-team honors last season.

Kamilla Cardoso, South Carolina
The senior center averaged 14.0 ppg and 9.5 rpg, leading the unbeaten and No. 1 ranked Gamecocks in both categories. Cardoso, the newly chosen SEC Defensive Player of the Year, is having a memorable season.

The freshman forward averaged 16.9 ppg, 4.9 apg, and 4.8 rpg. Booker led Texas to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Jacy Sheldon, Ohio State
The 5-foot-10 Sheldon was one of the best perimeter players in the nation. Averaging 18.0 ppg and shooting 38% from 3-point range, Sheldon helped OSU nab a No. 2 NCAA Tournament seed.
AP Third Team All-Americans
Alissa Pili, Utah
The 6-foot-2 fifth-year player is completing a brilliant career at Utah. Averaging 20.8 ppg, Pili has scored 2,104 career points. She was a second-team pick last year.
