A few things stand out about these awards. While there are a decent amount of seniors, there is quite a bit of younger players, too. Bobcats fans are certainly excited for the future, but so should Kent State fans. Really every team has reason to be optimistic for the future. As for this season, when I saw Mikayla Voigt on the second team, I was initially shocked, since she is over 20 points per game. However, there isn’t anyone on the first team that I would replace with her. I think that, as much as anything, is proof of just how loaded this conference is.
