Women’s college basketball is inevitable.
Mark down the 2023-24 season as the year everyone finally recognized that undeniable truth – including The Sporting News, which presents its inaugural All-America team for women’s college basketball.
That’s not to say we could have reached this point without years of blood and sweat – from Caitlin Clark, from Candace Parker, from Lynette Woodard, from every woman who stepped on the hardwood. All these women loved the game. And their passion made the present moment not just possible but unavoidable.
For another lesson in inevitability, look no further than Clark. The Iowa phenom stepped into a league ready to explode – and with her self-assured swagger and her logo 3-pointers, she not only lit the match but poured gasoline on the fire.
The Hawkeyes’ senior guard set records on and off the court in her final NCAA season, but Clark is far from the lone star. For proof, check out the rest of our 2024 All-America cohort, selected by a panel of TSN staff members. Every one of these 15 players has made their mark in a watershed year for women’s college basketball.
