Obi has a good case for both POY and DPOY. She is the most important cog in the machine that is Chicago's defense that was best in the league. Her rebounding is second to none for a team that lacks height, and she's one of the conference's leaders in steals while playing in the paint.

I also thought of Kaitlyn Read for both POY and DPOY, as she did receive the DPOY award in a previous season, and did lead the UAA in steals per game as well.  I was a little leery of voting 1 or 2 players to share both of these honors, but the coaches may see it your way, blue_jays.

I thought of Obi as a great offensive rebounder, not just a great rebounder.

I was pleasantly surprised to see Camila Casanueva of Brandeis earn Rookie of the Year, but she earned it.  Without her perfomances this season, Brandeis would not be playing tonight.  Her play in the first two UAA games makesvme very proud of her. 

Camila Casanueva becomes the second Brandeis women's basketball player to be named UAA Rookie of the Year; Jaime Capra earned the honor in 2005.

Kaitlyn Read of NYU is very deserving of the honors she earned today.

In addition, I would like to congratulate both Kaitlyn Read and Alexandra Leslie in becoming Jostens Trophy Finalists.
