FORT WORTH, Texas - TCU junior guard Adrianne Ross has been named to the honorable mention All-America team by the Associated Press. Ross is the first TCU player to earn All-America honors since Sandora Irvin in 2005.

Ross, who is also a WBCA/Kodak All-America finalist, was the Mountain West Conference Co-Player of the Year this past season, while helping the Lady Frogs tie for second in the league and earn their seventh straight bid to the NCAA Tournament.

A native of Hobbs, N.M., Ross was also selected First Team All-Mountain West Conference, while leading the league in scoring (17.3) and steals (2.9). Ross' steals average also ranked 19th in the nation.

On the year, Ross reached double figures in scoring in 27 of 32 games and posted two double-doubles. Ross earned MWC Player of the Week honors on Jan. 29 after finishing two assists shy of a triple-double with 16 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists against New Mexico on Jan. 24. In that same game, Ross became the ninth player in school history to record 1,000 career points.

Ross joined BYU's Dani Wright as the only two players in the league to receive honorable mention honors. Wright also shared MWC Player of the Year honors with Ross.
