Moore was named Big East Freshman of the Week today for the Big East record 9th time this season after averaging a double-double with 24.5 ppg and 10.0 rpg while helping UConn to a 2-0 record in the Big East for the week. Now the question becomes...has she done enough to convince the other coaches in the Big East that she is the BEST Player (not just Freshman) in the Big East and should win the 2007-08 Big East Player of the Year award.

My Final Three Contenders (in order) are:
1. Maya Moore, UConn
2. Angel McCoughtry, Louisville
3. Epiphanny Prince, Rutgers
