Nnamani Selected As D3Hoops First Team Atlantic Region All-Star

Bronx, NY- Lehman College sophomore sensation, Sally Nnamani has been selected as a first-team Atlantic Region basketball all-star by D3Hoops.com.

Nnamani, the 2006-07 CUNY Conference Player of the Year averaged a team high 20.3 ppg this season, leading Lehman to a 19-10 season, and the school's first ever CUNYAC championship. With the CUNY victory, Lehman advanced to it's first ever NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament.

"This honor is truly another example and reflection of the hard work and dedication of Sally Nnamani," said Lehman head coach Eric Harrison. "Sally has worked real hard this season, and it is great to see her hard work being recognized by such national media outlets."

The rest of the first team was comprised of Luci Custis of William Paterson University, Latrese McNair of New Jersey City University, and Debbie Bruen, and Liz Hickey of Mary Washington University.

Other CUNY notables selected were John Jay's Lashannen Hogue who was selected to the second team, while College of Staten Island's Nicole Estrada was selected to the third team.

The D3Hoops All-American team will be announced this weekend at the NCAA Division III Women's Final Four this weekend in Springfield, MA.
