LOS ANGELES (AP) — Connecticut forward Maya Moore and Penn State outside hitter Megan Hodge on Monday were named co-winners of the Honda-Broderick Cup.
The two received the award given to the nation’s top female college athlete during a ceremony at UCLA. It was only the second time in history that two athletes earned the honor.
Moore and Hodge were chosen over a third finalist, Iowa State track and field star Lisa Koll.
Moore led the Huskies to their second straight NCAA championship and was named the Final Four’s most outstanding player.
In four years at Penn State, Hodge amassed a 142-5 record and finished her career with 2,142 kills to become only the second player in school history with more than 2,000.
