For the 2nd consecutive season UConn's Maya Moore was named an AP First Team All-American, but this season she was the only unanimous pick (receiving 225 total votes from the 45-member panel). However, this time she is joined on the First Team by teammate Renee Montgomery. Today both were named to the 2008-09 Associated Press All America Teams along with teammate Tina Charles who was named to the Second Team. Oklahoma's Courtney Paris became the first player in WCBB history to be named to the AP First Team all four seasons of her career. Guess who is trying to become the second???
