Durr, Hines-Allen Earn Associated Press All-America Honors
March 26, 2018 | Women's Basketball
Durr was named first team, while Hines-Allen was named third team.
It marks the first time that Louisville has had two All-Americans in one season and Durr is the second AP First Team All-American in program history. The other was Angel McCoughtry in 2008-09.
McCoughtry was also named Second Team All-American in 2006-07 and 2007-08. Shoni Schimmel was an AP Second Team All-American selection in 2013-14.
Durr averages nearly 19 points a game and led the ACC in 3-point field goals made and 3-point field goal percentage en route to being named ACC Player of the Year.
She has a team-high 30 double-digit scoring games this season, including 15 20-point games. Her 691 points this year rank fifth in school history, while her 112 3-pointers rank third all-time.
Hines-Allen became just the second player in program history with 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds, joining McCoughtry. She has 16 double-doubles this season, which led the ACC, and her 45 career double-doubles rank second in school history.
She has 369 total rebounds this season, which is the most in program history.
The Cardinals return to action on Friday night in the national semifinal against No. 1 seed Mississippi State.Â
