SAN FRANCISCO – San Francisco junior Rachel Howard was tapped to the West Coast Conference All-Academic Team, announced today by the league offices.
An all-academic honorable mention selection a year ago, Howard holds the highest gpa on the 10-woman all-academic squad. The kinesiology major maintains a 3.75 grade point average, all while holding court as a sharpshooter for the USF offense.
A deadly threat from the outside, Howard stands in fourth in the WCC in 3-point percentage hitting 39.3 percent of her attempts from distance. Last night, the Berkeley, Calif., native went off for a career-high 29 points on 10-of-12 shooting, and a 6-of-7 effort from three as the Dons dominated Pepperdine, 99-75.
