SELLAND REPEATS AS ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICAN
3/16/2022 11:58:00 AM | Women's Basketball
For the second consecutive season, Myah Selland has been selected to the CoSIDA Academic All-America Second Team.
The redshirt junior holds a 3.97 grade point average in exercise science and community and public health. She was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District 6 Team earlier this spring and was also a CoSIDA All-America second team selection last season. She is the second Jackrabbit to earn repeat CoSIDA honors.
Selland, a Letcher native, is averaging 13.8 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists this season, which landed her a spot on the All-Summit League first team. She is shooting better than 51 percent from the floor and the 3-point line. Selland has put up double figures in 16 contests this season, including a season-high 26 during the Summit League Tournament.
In addition to her excellence in the classroom, Selland is involved in a number of SDSU and Brookings organizations, including the Student Athlete Advisory Committee, Brookings County Youth Mentoring and the Diversity & Inclusion in Athletics Council. Selland and teammate Tori Nelson recently launched Her Turn, a nonprofit organization to provide opportunities for girls to attend summer camps at South Dakota State.
South Carolina's Aliyah Boston was named the 2021-22 Academic All-America of the Year for the second consecutive season. In addition to Boston, six more student-athletes join Selland as a repeat selection on the Academic All-America® Division I team. Vivian Gray of Texas Tech University earns her third Academic All-America® honor after being a first team selection last season and a third team pick the year before. Other repeat selections from 2020-21 include - Conley Chinn (Belmont University), Lexie Hull (Stanford University), Ayoka Lee (Kansas State University), Dariauna Lewis (Alabama A&M University) and Sam Thomas (University of Arizona).
The 2021-22 Academic All-America programs recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the court and in the classroom. To be considered for Academic All-America honors, nominees must be at least a sophomore in athletic and academic standing, carry at least a 3.3 grade-point average and be a starter or key reserve. The process starts at the district level, with first-team selections advancing to the national ballot.Â
