UConn's Stewart headlines All-America team for 3rd time


Breanna Stewart has earned The Associated Press All-America honors three times, becoming just the sixth player to do so.
UConn's star headlined the team Monday, along with teammate Moriah Jefferson, Ohio State's Kelsey Mitchell, Minnesota's Rachel Banham and South Carolina's A'ja Wilson.
Stewart once again did it in dominating fashion, appearing on all 32 ballots selected by the national media panel that votes in the weekly Top 25. It's the third consecutive year that the 6-foot-5 phenom was a unanimous choice. Voting was done before the NCAA Tournament.
Baylor's Brittney Griner, Tennessee's Chamique Holdsclaw, Duke's Alana Beard, Oklahoma's Courtney Paris and UConn's Maya Moore are the only other players to earn first-team honors at least three times. Paris and Moore were All-Americans all four years.
