 | California Pacific Conference Player of the Year Jolise Limcaco added another accolade to her resume on Wednesday as she was named to the NAIA All-American third team.
Limcaco, a sophomore guard from Sacramento, was an integral part of Menlo's impressive season, which included a 26-4 record, Cal Pac regular season and conference championships, a 10-0 conference record, and a trip to the NAIA national championships.
Limcaco averaged 16.7 points and 4.9 assists per game while shooting nearly 50 percent from the field.
This is the first time Limcaco has cracked the All-American list in her two seasons as a Lady Oak.
She's the reigning Cal Pac Player of the Year, and has been a first team all-conference pick in each of the past two seasons.
Limcaco is the first Menlo College women's basketball player to be named to the NAIA All-American list since Kelci Fushikoshi earned an honorable mention in 2009.
