(UW-OSHKOSH ATHLETICS) UW-Oshkosh senior guard Leah Porath has been recognized as one of the top five NCAA Division III womenâs basketball players on the 2021 D3hoops.com All-America First Team.
Porath is the programâs first player to receive D3hoops.com First Team honors after also garnering 2021 All-America First Team accolades from the Womenâs Basketball Coaches Association. Due to a 2021 campaign in which many teams played conference-only schedules, D3hoops.com did not select a national Player of the Year.
Porath, a 2020 D3hoops.com Third Team All-American, is the first Titan to earn multiple national honors from the online organizationâs postseason awards program that began in 1998. UW-Oshkoshâs previous D3hoops.com All-Americans were Kay Mikolajczak (2004 Second Team) and Taylor Schmidt (2017 Honorable Mention).
