MINNEAPOLIS - Riley Brady has been named to the D3hoops.com 2026-27 preseason women's All-American team, the organization announced on Tuesday.
A preseason third team All-American selection, Brady is coming off one of the most decorated seasons in the Hendrix women's basketball history.
In 2025-26, the senior forward became the first Warrior to earn D3hoops.com All-American honors since Meg Frazier did so in 2021. She was also named an All-American by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) and swept the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference's (SCAC) end-of-year major awards by becoming just the third player all-time to earn both SCAC Player of the Year and SCAC Defensive Player of the Year. Brady was also the 2025-26 recipient of the SCAC Elite 19 award for women's basketball, which celebrates the best of the best as it relates to both academic and athletic achievement.
Over the course of the 2025-26 season, Brady earned SCAC Player of the Week on five different occasions, was selected to the D3hoops.com National Team of the Week, and also was named the USBWA National Division III Player of the Week.
Brady finished second in all of NCAA Division III with 18.2 rebounds per game and was second in the SCAC in scoring with 17.1 points per game. She was the NCAA's statistical champion in Division III with 7.5 offensive boards per game. Brady crushed the SCAC's single-season rebounding record with 421 total rebounds and owns the top three SCAC single-game rebound performances with 31, 30, and 29. She also tied the program's single-game scoring record with 38 points versus Centenary on February 6, 2026.
Last season, Brady led the Warriors to a share of the SCAC Blue Division regular season championship and helped Hendrix earn a berth in the SCAC championship game in their first season back in the league.
