The Southeastern Conference has announced its 2023 women’s basketball postseason awards with multiple Rebels and Bulldogs receiving honors.
Angel Baker of Ole Miss (22-7, 11-5 SEC) was named first-team All-SEC after leading the Rebels in both points (15.0) and assists (2.7) per game. Baker, a junior guard, notched 21 games in double-figures this season on the way to becoming the fourth Rebel to surpass 2,000 career points.
Joining Baker on the All-SEC team was junior forward Madison Scott. Scott earned second-team honors after averaging 11.6 points and a team-high 8.3 rebounds during the regular season. She was also named the conference’s Defensive Player of the Year, holding down the paint with at least one block and one steal per game.
For Mississippi State (20-9, 9-7 SEC), Jessika Carter earned second-team All-SEC and SEC All-Defensive team honors. Carter, a senior forward, led the Bulldogs in points (14.8), rebounds (7.8), and blocks (2.2) per game. She was one of just two SEC players to finish top 15 in scoring, rebounding, and blocked shots this season.
