Maya Moore 2006
Suwanee (Georgia) Collins Hill High School
Maya Moore, who led the US U-19 team to a World Championships gold medal last August, led the 2007—08 University of Connecticut squad in scoring (17.8 PPG), while shooting more than 54 percent from the field and 42 percent from three-point range. She also was second on the team in both rebounding (7.6 RPG) and blocked shots (1.6 BPG), and was third in both assists (3.1 APG) and steals (1.7 SPG). She broke the UConn freshman single-season scoring record with 678 points. In recognition of her efforts, she was named Big East Player of the Year and Associated Press first-team All-American, only the second freshman in history to be so honored. She played a key role in the Huskies' success in 2007-08, who lost in the Final Four to Stanford.
