LEXINGTON, Ky. – Junior Victoria Dunlap (Nashville, Tenn.) was named to the preseason All-Southeastern Conference as selected by league coaches and announced by the conference office Thursday.

The 6-1 forward led the team in scoring (12.8 points per game), field goal percentage (.482 percent), rebounding (9.1 rebounds per game), steals (57) and blocks (38) last season. Her rebounding mark was second in the league and she charted 10 double-doubles (points/rebounds) which also ranked second. Dunlap was named to the SEC-All Freshman Team in 2007-08 and also was an All-SEC second team selection by the league coaches and The Associated Press last season.

Points were compiled on an 11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis for order of prediction, while each player received two points for a first-team vote and one point for a second-team vote. Coaches were not allowed to vote for their own team or players.

This is the sixth-annual preseason All-SEC team for women’s basketball. The Wildcats have placed a member on a preseason All-SEC team in each of the six years.
