All-BIG EAST shooting guard voted onto Senior CLASS Second Team
CHICAGO – Sonya Morris finished off her senior season being named to her first All-American Team.
The All-BIG EAST First Team guard was selected Thursday to the 2021-22 Senior CLASS All-American Second Team in nationwide voting by women's basketball coaches, national media and fans.
Stanford standout Lexie Hull was honored as the Senior CLASS Award winner in advance of the Cardinal's Final Four showdown Friday against Connecticut.
An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School®---the Senior CLASS Award focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.
To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior or graduate student and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence: classroom, community, character, and competition.
Morris excelled in all four categories in helping lead DePaul back into the NCAA tournament while ranking among the nation's best in field goals all season long.
The explosive scorer with a velvet-soft shooting touch averaged 17.6 points per game overall and 19.1 points a game in BIG EAST Conference play.
She was recognized as one of the five best shooting guards in the country by the Ann Meyers Drysdale Shooting Guard of the Year Award national committee.
Morris has DePaul's second and third-highest scoring games this season with 36 points against Vanderbilt at the Paradise Jam (U.S. Virgin Islands) and 35 at St. John's.
The sharpshooter from St. Louis scored in double figures 29 of DePaul's 33 games including 17 of the last 19. The 5-foot, 10-inch guard with a game-changing scoring touch is a big reason why the Blue Demons lead the nation in scoring at 87.3 points per game.
Morris scored 20 or more points 11 times this season.
