Others nominated for the award were Tina Smith of

Eastern Washington, Mindy Rice of Idaho, Dani Gregson of Idaho State, Brooke Svendsen of Montana State and Mika Brown of Weber State.

Iowa basketball player Chris Kingsbury, the school record-holder for 3-pointers, was suspended for the next three games because of unsportsmanlike behavior in Iowa’s loss to Penn State last weekend.
