LSU junior guard Danielle Ballard earned Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) All-Region 3 selection, announced the organization Wednesday.
The WBCA handed out All-Region status to 52 players representing 43 schools. Ballard’s selection to the All-Regional team makes her eligible to become a member of the WBCA Coaches’ All-American Team.
Despite being suspended for the first 14 games of the season, Ballard led the Tigers with 14.5 points, 7.2 boards, 3.1 steals and 2.9 assists per game. She was the only Southeastern Conference player to finish the season in the conference’s top-10 in four of the five major statistical categories.
Ballard recorded double figures in 14 of her 17 appearances, including a career long stretch of 12-straight games.
