It’s nothing new for Arizona forward Cate Reese. Beginning her sophomore season, her name has appeared on preseason watch lists for just about every award she’s eligible for. In her fifth and final season in college basketball, the honors continue. The latest is the Wooden Award Preseason Top 50 watchlist.
The list includes players who are considered strong candidates for the 2023 John R. Wooden Award Women’s Player of the Year heading into the season. Reese is also on preseason watch lists for the Katrina McClain Award and the Naismith Trophy, as well as being named Preseason All-Pac-12 by the media that covers the conference.
