For the third straight year under head coach Dave Shondell Purdue has landed a freshman on the All-Freshman team. Freshman Eva Hudson was a unanimous selection to the All-Freshman team but she didn’t stop there. Oh no, she also was voted Freshman of the Year and First Team All Big Ten. Quite the campaign for the true freshman. She is the first freshman of the year for the Boilermakers since Debbie McDonald accomplished this in 1986.
To go along with Hudson, Purdue’s Raven Colvin and Maddie Schermerhorn were both named to the Second Team All Conference.
What’s interesting to this to me is that none of these three women were listed on the pre-season awards lists and yet here they are at the end of the year grabbing the attention of the conference.
