Maryland guard Destiny Slocum was named National Freshman of the Year by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association Saturday in Dallas.
Slocum and the Maryland staff attended an awards presentation at the Sheraton Dallas as part of the WBCA's FOCUS event.

Said coach Brenda Frese: "Destiny has had an amazing start to her career this year.
