Recent DePaul graduate and basketball player Jessica January has been named one of 30 finalists for the NCAA Woman of the Year Award.
Out of an original field of 543 school nominations, 145 were selected by conferences and an independent selection committee. Of those, 10 each were selected from Division I, II and III.
The award is made to honor female student athletes who excel not just on the court, but in the class room and as community leaders.
January graduated this past year Summa Cum Laude and was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-America First team.
