Moore, Montgomery first teamers
For the fourth time in UConn's history, two players have been named to the Associated Press All-American first team.
Senior guard Renee Montgomery and sophomore forward Maya Moore joins Oklahoma's Courtney Paris, the first player to be a four-time first team selection, Louisville's Angel McCoughtry and Maryland's Kristi Toliver as first teamers. Moore was the only unanimous selection.
UConn's Tina Charles was named to the second team along with Ohio State's Jantel Lavender, Marissa Coleman of Maryland, Auburn's DeWanna Bonner and Stanford's Jayne Appel.
The last time two Huskies were named to the AP's first team came in 1999-2000 when Svetlana Abrosimova and Shea Ralph were selected. UConn also had multiple first team selections in 1996-97 (Nykesha Sales and Kara Wolters) and in 1995-96 (Jen Rizzotti, Wolters).
