All-Region teams
MINNEAPOLIS - Hendrix guard Kennedi Burns has been named the D3hoops.com South Region Rookie of the Year, which was announced Wednesday.
Burns, the Southern Athletic Association (SAA) Newcomer of the Year and an All-SAA honorable mention pick, ranked fifth in the league in scoring per game (13.8). She scored in double figures nine times, including seven-straight games to end the season, and topped the 20-point mark twice.
Players were nominated for all-region teams and awards by Sports Information Directors at the various schools. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, some regions had limited numbers of teams which played and were combined for awards purposes. Teams had to play a minimum of five games to make their players eligible.
The 2020-21 campaign marks the 20th season D3hoops.com has named All-Region teams.
