2010-11 Naismith Preseason Watch List
The Atlanta Tipoff Club’s Board of Selectors compiled the 2010-11 Naismith Preseason Watch List. Selection is based on player performances from the previous year and expectations for the 2010-11 college basketball season. The Naismith Trophy will be awarded on April 4, 2011 at the NCAA Women’s Final Four in Indianapolis.
In late February, the Atlanta Tipoff Club’s Board of Selectors will compile a mid-season team of the top 30 players in the nation. Four finalists will be announced in March 2011.
