LSU’s Angel Reese was named the SEC Player of the Year while freshman phenom Mikaylah Williams was named SEC Freshman of the Year to lead five total Tigers to receive recognition.

Reese was also placed on the All-SEC First Team and SEC All-Defensive Team with Williams being on the All-Freshman Team for the Southeastern Conference. DePaul transfer Aneesah Morrow was also on the First Team with Reese while 2023’s Freshman of the Year Flau’jae Johnson was placed on the Second Team. Aalyah Del Rosario was also named to the All-Freshman team.

LSU is now the first team since South Carolina in 2015 to have both the Player of the Year and Freshman of the Year. LSU is also the first program to produce back-to-back Freshman of the Year since Missouri in 2016 and 2017 (only 4th time in conference history). Reese is the third Tiger to be Player of the Year (Seimone Augustus ’05 and ’06, Sylvia Fowles ’08). Williams becomes the fifth LSU player to win Freshman of the Year (DeTrina White ’99. Seimone Augustus ’03, LaSondra Barnett ’09, Flau’Jae Johnson ’23).

Reese made the First Team for the second straight season after leading the conference in scoring and rebounding with 19.1 points per game and 13 rebounds per game. She became the first player since Vanderbilt’s Wendy Scholtens in 1989 and 1990 to lead the SEC in both stats in multiple seasons. Reese has 20 double-doubles on the year, including nine straight, to give her 54 at LSU, breaking the record of 34 last year. Against Auburn, Reese recorded 25 points and 20 rebounds, her seventh 20/20 game and sixth 25/20 game in her career. Reese leads the NCAA in offensive rebounds at 5.6 per game, 2nd in free throw attempts (214), and sixth in free throws made (156). She’s also made an impact on the defensive end with 1.8 steals per game and 0.9 blocks per game, both top-15 in the SEC.
