Charlise Dunn and Elle Sutphin
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Sophomore Charlise Dunn and redshirt-senior Elle Sutphin were named to the Atlantic 10 All-Conference Third Team, the league office announced Tuesday.
Sutphin, a native of Pilot Mountain, N.C., earned her second all-conference honor after making the Second Team a season ago. In 15 games, Sutphin averaged 12.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 steals per game. She found shooting success form all over the court, posting percentages of .465 from the floor, .395 from beyond the arc and .889 from the foul line.
The forward tallied just five games without eclipsing double-digit points while posting a season-high 24 against George Mason Feb. 14 inside John M. Belk Arena.
Dunn, in her debut season with the Wildcats, picked up her first postseason recognition. Over 23 games and 16 starts, the sophomore ended the regular season with per-game averages of 12.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks. One of the most versatile players in the league, Dunn shot .417 overall, .333 from 3-point range and .855 from the free-throw line.
The Victoria, Australia native tallied four 20-point games this season, including a career-high 27 versus Saint Louis Feb. 3 in Belk Arena that was highlighted by a 10-of-13 showing from the charity stripe. Dunn has totaled 15 games scoring at least 10 points while picking up two double-doubles as a Wildcat.
As a team, Davidson finished the regular season with an 18-8 overall record and an 8-7 mark in Atlantic 10 action. The Wildcats got off to the best start in program history with a 12-1 opening half of the season that included wins over ACC opponents Wake Forest and Duke.
