IRVING, Texas – Iowa State women’s basketball center Kristin Scott was named to the Preseason All-Big 12 Team, while incoming sophomore Ashley Joens was named honorable mention preseason All-Big 12, the league announced Wednesday.

Scott appeared in all 35 games for the Cyclones and was ISU’s second-leading scorer, averaging 12.8 points, 7.1 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game. Her contributions in 2018-19 earned the Kasson, Minn. native second-team All-Big 12 honors.

She became just the third player and first power five player to score 31 points, while remaining perfect from the floor and earned Big 12 Player of the Week honors for her efforts.

Joens on the other hand, started in all 35 games last season for the Cyclones, averaging 11.7 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. She was named to the Big 12’s All-Freshman Team for her efforts.
