Edwards is the first Husky to earn All-American honors honors since Paige Bueckers in 2021 and the first post player since Napheesa Collier in 2019. Overall, she’s the 25th All-American in UConn’s program history, which will earn her a spot on the wall at the Werth Champion Center. In order to get her number in the Huskies of Honor, Edwards will need to be named a WBCA All-American, too.

Edwards has been a force this season. She’s averaged 16.6 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists while shooting 57.3 percent from the floor. Edwards has reached double-figures in 29 of 34 games while going over the 20-point mark 13 times — including a career-high 26 points against Florida State on Dec. 18. She’s also recorded 13 double-doubles after managing just three in her first two seasons.

Lou Lopez Sénéchal and Nika Mühl both earned AP honorable mention honors.

Lopez Sénéchal has been a steady scoring presence in the backcourt all season long with 15.7 points per while while shooting 46.7 percent from the floor and 43.0 percent from three.

Mühl’s had a record-breaking season at point guard. She broke Sue Bird’s mark for the most assists in a single-season at UConn with 259 (and counting) and also set the single-game record for assists with 15 against NC State on Nov. 20. Mühl’s 7.3 assists rank third nationally and her 7.3 points per game is also a career-best.

Congrats to all three UConn superstars. Now keep your excellent play going for 6 more games!!!
