Llanusa Named to Preseason All-Big 12 Team
October 09, 2019 | Women's Basketball
NORMAN – Oklahoma junior guard Ana Llanusa has been named to the Preseason All-Big 12 Team, the conference announced Wednesday.
The honors were voted on by the league's head coaches, who are not allowed to vote for their own players.
Llanusa averaged 19.1 points per game during Big 12 play last season, which ranked third in the league. She tallied eight 20-point scoring performances against conference opponents. Llanusa's 19.1 points per game were the sixth-best scoring average by a Sooner against Big 12 opponents in school history.
The Choctaw, Okla., native scored 30 points three times against Big 12 foes in 2018-19, including a career-high 35 points at Iowa State on Jan. 19. Llanusa set a school record with six straight 20-point scoring performances down the stretch in Big 12 play.
She also ranked sixth in the Big 12 with 1.9 steals per contest in conference games and 10th in the league with a .351 3-point field goal percentage in league action.
Llanusa earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors in 2018-19 and was an honorable mention All-Big 12 selection in 2017-18.
Joining Llanusa on the 11-member preseason team are Lauren Cox (Baylor), Juicy Landrum (Baylor), NaLyssa Smith (Baylor), Kristin Scott (Iowa State), Peyton Williams (K-State), Vivian Gray (Oklahoma State), Joyner Holmes (Texas), Sug Sutton (Texas), Brittany Brewer (Texas Tech) and Tynice Martin (West Virginia).
OU begins its 2019-20 schedule on Nov. 4 at 7 p.m. CT with an exhibition game at Lloyd Noble Center against Oklahoma City University. The Sooners open the regular season on Nov. 8 against Prairie View A&M in the Preseason WNIT at 8 p.m. CT.
