Coaches and media from the Big Ten Conference have heaped awards upon Jolene Anderson since the standout joined the University of Wisconsin women’s basketball team as a rookie during the 2004-05 season.
As the Port Wing native’s collegiate career winds down, the accolades keep coming her way.
Anderson, who led the Big Ten in scoring for a second straight season, was selected Big Ten Player of the Year Monday night by a 22-member media panel. She is the first Badgers women’s player to earn the honor.
