Indianapolis, Ind. – Bowling Green State University standout Talisa Lemke has been named a conference honoree for the NCAA Woman of the Year award. A record number of 605 women were nominated for the honor, which was whittled to 161 conference-level honorees.
Conference-level nominations will be reviewed by the selection committee, which will choose the top 10 honorees from each of the three NCAA divisions. The NCAA will announce those nominees in September before the selection committee narrows the list to the top three finalists in each division. The NCAA Committee on Women's Athletics will then select the 2020 NCAA Woman of the Year from the nine finalists and the winner will be announced this fall.
