WKU's Ivy Brown was named C-USA Defensive Player of the Year, Raneem Elgedawy earned up C-USA Freshman of the Year honors and Dee Givens brought home the C-USA Sixth Player of the Year award.
With Brown’s Defensive Player of the Year award, WKU has now captured that honor in three of its four seasons as a member of the league; former Lady Topper Kendall Noble won the award following the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons. Elgedawy and Givens are the first Lady Toppers to be named Freshman and Sixth Player of the Year since WKU’s move to the league four years ago.
