Dunn Selected to Horizon League All-Academic Team

2018 Mar 27

Youngstown State sophomore Mary Dunn (Washington, PA) has been voted to the 2017-18 Horizon League Women's Basketball All-Academic Team for her combined success on the court and in the classroom.

"I'm extremely proud of Mary for garnering Academic All-Horizon League honors," YSU head coach John Barnes said. "She works very hard in the classroom and on the court, so for her to be recognized by the league for both is outstanding. She is a model student-athlete."

As a sophomore, Dunn led the Penguins and ranked third in the Horizon League in field-goal percentage at .547. She also ranked eighth in the conference with 0.8 blocks per game, and she averaged 6.8 points per game. During Horizon League play, Dunn's .570 shooting percentage was the second-best mark in the league. She was the Horizon League Freshman of the Year in 2016-17.

In the classroom, Dunn boasts a perfect 4.0 grade-point average as a communications studies major. A three-time Horizon League Academic Honor Roll selection as well, she helped YSU rank in the WBCA Academic Top 25 last year.
