Media votes Hollinquest SoCon player of the year

Just like the league’s coaches, the Southern Conference media voted University of Tennessee at Chattanooga senior Shanara Hollinquest the women’s basketball player of the year for the second straight season, the SoCon announced Tuesday.

Hollinquest and fellow UTC senior Jenaya Wade-Fray earned first-team All-SoCon honors. Joining them on the first team were the College of Charleston’s Tonia Gerty, freshman of the year Ali Ford of Elon and Samford’s Emily London.

Appalachian State put three players on the second team: Ashlen Dewart, Anna Freeman and Sam Ramirez. Also on the second team were Davidson’s Alex Thompson and Samford’s Savannah Hill.

On Monday, the coaches voted Hollinquest the player of the year and Wade-Fray All-SoCon. In addition, Kayla Christopher was named to the All-Freshman team.
