UConn's Maya Moore, a two-time winner, and Tiffany Hayes were among 25 players named as preseason candidates for the Wade Trophy, the most prestigious individual honor in women's college basketball.

The winner will be announced at the 2011 Final Four in Indianapolis. If Moore wins, she would become the first player to earn the honor three times. She currently joins former LSU star Seimone Augustus and ex-Old Dominion great Nancy Lieberman as the only two-time winners of the Wade Trophy.

Nine players who the Huskies will face in the upcoming season are also on the list (Ohio State's Jantel Lavender and Samantha Prahalis, Stanford's Nneka Ogwumike and Kayla Pedersen, Duke's Jasmine Thomas, Danielle Robinson of Oklahoma, Sugar Rodgers of Georgetown, Notre Dame's Skylar Diggins, Brittney Griner of Baylor) as is former UConn recruit Elena Delle Donne.
