ATLANTA, Ga.  – Edinboro University junior Valerie Majewski (McKean, Pa./General McLane) was named to the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) NCAA Division II All-American Team on Monday night. The WBCA All-American Team was announced at the Elite Eight Banquet. In addition, redshirt junior Laurel Lindsay (South Park, Pa./South Park) earned honorable mention All-American recognition.  Edinboro won the Atlantic Regional a week ago to earn its second trip to the Elite Eight. The Fighting Scots will face West Region champion Cal Poly Pomona on Tuesday, March 25 at 6 p.m. at the Erie Insurance Arena in Erie, Pa.
  Majewski's stellar season adds to the growing list of accolades the junior guard has received and makes it the third straight year Edinboro has had a WBCA All-American. Current student assistant coach Kiara Brown received the honor the last two seasons.  Samantha Blazetic was an honorable mention pick last year, as well.  Edinboro has now had five WBCA All-Americans.

Majewski was previously named to the Daktronics All-Atlantic Region Team and the Atlantic Regional All-Tournament Team, and was the PSAC West Athlete of the Year, an All-PSAC West First Team selection, and was the PSAC Tournament MVP

The University at Buffalo transfer leads the Fighting Scots with 16.3 ppg. She is also averaging 4.2 rpg., 4.1 assists per game, and 2.0 steals per game. Majewski is the only player in the PSAC to rank in the top seven in scoring and assists, ranking seventh in both categories. She is shooting 45.8 percent (191-for-417) from the floor and is the team's top 3-point threat with 62 in 164 attempts (37.8 percent). She has made 72 of 98 free throws (73.5 percent)  Majewski has scored in double figures in 29 of the Scots' 32 games  and has led the team in scoring in 13 games.

Majewski has made her way up the list of multiple season records in her first season with Edinboro. She has scored 520 points, tied for the 13^th-highest total in a single-season. Her 62 3-pointers are tied for fifth.  She has also dished out 130 assists, good for 16^th in a season.

The 5'7" guard is coming off an Atlantic Regional in which she helped guide the 27-5 Fighting Scots to their second-ever regional title. She led the team with 18 points in a 64-62 quarterfinal win over Charleston, making 7-of-11 field goal attempts, including 2-of-4 3-pointers. She once again topped double figures with 13 points and six rebounds against Gannon in the semifinals, a 77-69 victory. 

After a slow start Majewski spurred a comeback in the championship game as Edinboro prevailed 82-76 over Bloomsburg. She finished with 20 points and five rebounds while going a perfect 9-for-9 from the free throw line.

She turned in a pair of record-setting performances while leading Edinboro to its third PSAC championship in four years. In a 104-82 semifinal win over West Chester she handed out a PSAC Tournament-record 16 assist, also tying the school record, along with scoring 13 points.

She was even better than next day as Edinboro defeated Gannon 86-76, one of four victories over a Lady Knights' team which finished 28-4 and was ranked third at the time. She scored a career-high 33 points, the sixth-highest total in a PSAC tournament game, including 19 of Edinboro's final 28 points. She made 12 of 18 field goals, including 5 of 6 3-pointers, and was 4 of 6 from the line. She added five rebounds, two assists and two steals. Majewski also has a triple-double from January 8 against Shippensburg as part of her résumé. It was only the fourth triple-double in school history as she finished with 25 points, 12 assists, and 11 rebounds.

Lindsay is redshirt junior who was a second team All-PSAC West selection and is averaging 12.7 ppg., 4.9 rpg., and 4.3 apg. She is shooting 47.1 percent from the floor (124 of 263), including 44 of 106 3-pointers, and is 94 of 120 from the line (78.3 percent). Her 41.5 percent figure on 3-pointers is fourth all-time for a single season. She has handed out 136 assists, 15^th most all-time for a single season. In addition, she ranks 12^th in school history with 332 assists and ranks 11^thin career 3-point field goals made with 86 . She has started all 91 games of her career.

The thing that makes Lindsay so valuable is her ability to play anywhere on the court. The 6'0" guard/forward can be found at any time playing point guard on offense and guarding the opponents' top interior player on defense. Lindsay is a part of a four-year group that has won the most games for any four-year group with a 105-18 record.

Majewski and Lindsay have helped Edinboro to 27 wins, tied for the second-highest total in a season. The team has enjoyed winning streaks of nine and currently 11 games, both ranking among the top five in school history.
