March 24, 2021 | Women's Basketball
ATLANTA – Colorado senior Mya Hollingshed was one of eight players selected as regional finalists by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association for 2021 WBCA NCAA Division I Coaches All-America.
The selection committee will narrow the 52 finalists from the five regions down to a 10-member Coaches All-America team. The 2021 WBCA NCAA Division I Coaches' All-America team will be announced Saturday, April 3.
Hollingshed, a Houston, Texas, native, concluded the 2020-21 season averaging the best numbers of her four-year career. She led the Buffs in both points (15.4 ppg) and rebounds (7.8 rpg). Hollingshed scored double figures in 20 of CU's 23 games this season. She recorded 10 or more points in 18 straight games, from Dec. 6 to Mar. 19.
The senior became the 32nd player in program history to surpass 1,000 career points. She finishes the season with 1,244 points, good for 22nd on CU's all-time scoring list. She snagged 179 rebounds this season, giving her 681 for her career (15th all-time).
Hollingshed scored a career-high 32 points in CU's 77-72 overtime win over then-No. 1 Stanford. She also notched a career-high 17 rebounds at Arizona State. Hollingshed leads the Pac-12 with eight double-doubles this season, giving her 16 on her career. She also scored 20 or more points in four games this season, giving her 13 career 20-point games.
WBCA member head coaches may nominate players from their own teams for Coaches' All-America. Head coaches then vote for the top eight players in their respective regions from among those players who are nominated. The selection committee, which is composed of head coaches from each region who are elected by their peers, may select up to 12 additional at-large finalists from the remaining pool of nominees for a total of 52 finalists.
