In a few days, the National Freshman of the Year award will be announced, based on results through tonight. Many voters will be voting tonight or tomorrow. How would you vote? Although Beachman will say Crimes, and some will say Whatever, most people will say that the choice is between Cristal Morrison of Washington and Sarah Pavan of Nebraska. Tho Nebraska did not make it into the final four, Pavan's 35 kills against USC, following her stellar performance throughout the year, may well be considered icing on the cake.
Morrison, has led Washington throughout the season after AA Tomasevic went down with a hand injury. Several matches ago, Morrison went down with a torn meniscus in her knee. Rather than immediately opt for surgery, as would many players who could rest on their laurels, she chose to defer it to help her team as best as she could. Last Night against St Marys, she had 19 kills, no errors, in 41 attempts. Tonight, Brie Hagerty played much more because of Morrisons condition, and Morrison was not a statistical difference in her teams come from behind 5 game victory over UCLA to gain entry into the Final Four. (Please do not let Pavan's Canadian citizenship enter into your voting, as you should not let Stacy Gordon's Canadian citizenship enter into your voting for National POY.)
PS Pavan made the Louisville All-Regional team; don't know who made the Seattle All-Regional team.
