South Dakota senior guard Ciara Duffy has been named one of five finalists for the inaugural Becky Hammon Mid-Major Player of the Year award presented by Her Hoop Stats.
The Becky Hammon Award is designed to recognize the nation’s best mid-major player in women’s basketball. The award is named for South Dakota basketball legend Becky Hammon, who became the first female full-time coach in the NBA with the San Antonio Spurs in 2014.
Duffy and Hammon share the same hometown in Rapid City, South Dakota.
The 2020 Summit League Player of the Year and a three-time all-Summit League first-team pick, Duffy is averaging 16.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists in her senior campaign.
