Well deserved.

With a name that spells and sounds like "All Red" it's nice to have her wearing Vermilion.

Freshman All-American team?

One girl who was critical to making sure that the win streak continued was Lauren Allred. Allred has been phenomenal all year. But she was even better this past weekend and was awarded for her play, as she was announced as the Sun Belt player of the week.

Freshman All-American team?

Probably not. Doesn't play for a power five team.

If she keeps it up, she will be known as All-Red the All-American.

I see that too!

[Cajunchuck]

Congratulations to the young lady. She is very impressive and will hopefully get even better throughout her Cajun career.

Freshman All-American team?

Not sure if the NFCA has a Freshman All American team. Maybe one of the various website publications has that.

Thanks for the info. I knew freshmen could be named to the NFCA All American team but I didn't think that they had an All American team made up exclusively of freshmen players. With so many great freshmen playing, it's got to be hard to pick just one as the FOY.

Mihyia made the top 25 cut for Freshman of the Year, but not Lauren.
