DAVIDSON, N.C. – Senior forward Sophia Aleksandravicius collected yet another accolade after her stout senior campaign, earning Full Court Mid-Major All-America Honorable Mention as announced recently by fullcourt.com.
The school-record holder in seven categories, including points (1,878), rebounds (1,143) and blocks (339), Aleksandravicius becomes the first Wildcat to earn the honor. She adds the award to a growing collection of senior accolades this year. Aleksandravicius was tabbed the Southern Conference Player and Defender of the Year for the second season in a row, while earning All-SoCon First Team honors on both the media and coaches team. The 6-5 forward is the first player in program history to be picked first team three straight years on both teams as well as the first player to win the league's top honor twice.
The Pound Ridge, N.Y., was also named the SoCon Player of the Year by CollegeSportsMadness.com and earned first-team honors. The publication named Aleksandravicius to the All Mid-Major Second Team, the only SoCon player named to any of the four teams.
Aleksandravicius led Davidson to its second straight postseason appearance with a trip to the Women's NIT, where the Wildcats netted the program's first postseason victory. The senior tallied her 50th career double-double, and 20th of the season, with 27 points and 11 rebounds in guiding the 'Cats to a first-round win at Old Dominion, March 21.
A four-time SoCon Player of the Month winner during her Wildcat career, Aleksandravicius also set six new single-season Wildcat records during her senior year. In addition, she set a new single-game blocks mark with 10 on her way to collecting the program's first triple-double, Feb. 16, with 20 points, 10 rebounds and 10 blocks in home win vs. Furman.
The senior led the SoCon in scoring (16.5), rebounding (9.9) and blocks (102- 2.9 per game), while ranking 10th in the nation in blocks and 11th in double-doubles. She wrapped up her career by scoring in double digits 104 times, including 28 20-point outings and a pair of 30-point games. She also registered 56 double-digit rebounding games during her career.
Davidson finished with its second straight 22-win campaign, going 22-13 and 16-4 in SoCon play. The 22 overall wins and 16 in league play were second-most in program history. The Wildcats also reached the SoCon Championship game for just the second time and their trip to the WNIT was the program's third-ever.
