March 16, 2022 | Women's Basketball
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee junior Jordan Horston has been named Associated Press All-America Honorable Mention, the media organization announced on Wednesday.
Horston had a breakout season, playing her way onto the Wooden Award Late Season Watch List and making the Ann Meyers Drysdale Award Top 10.
The 6-foot-2 guard from Columbus, Ohio, averaged 16.2 points, 9.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks in 23 games played before missing time due to an injury suffered at Alabama on Feb. 17. Those numbers lead Tennessee in each category except blocked shots. The dynamic guard also managed a team-leading 12 double-doubles, tying her with Glory Johnson at sixth all-time among Lady Vol juniors. She paced UT in scoring on 15 occasions, in assists 15 times and in rebounding during 12 games.
Â
In seven contests vs. ranked opponents this season, Horston put up 20.7 ppg., 10.7 rpg. and 4.0 apg. with four double-doubles.
Â
This is the third straight year a Lady Vol has been named AP All-America Honorable Mention, with Rennia Davis making the list in 2020 and '21. Horston is the 21st Tennessee player to receive All-America recognition since the AP began honoring women in 1995.
