Three members of the Bowling Green State University women's basketball program were recognized for their season-long accomplishments by College Sports Madness on Sunday (March 9). The web site's 2013-14 All-Mid-American Conference Teams and specialty-award winners were released, with CSM naming Jennifer Roos MAC Coach of the Year and placing seniors Jillian Halfhill and Alexis Rogers on the All-MAC First Team.
College Sports Madness 2013-14 All-MAC Team
Roos has guided the Falcons to a 27-3 overall record in her second season as a collegiate head coach. That mark includes a 17-1 MAC ledger, as BG won the MAC's overall regular-season title for the eighth time in the last 10 years. The Falcons were picked to finish in second place in the East Division in the preseason coaches poll, but won the division by three games. Roos has an overall record of 51-14 and a MAC mark of 28-6 over her first two seasons at the BG helm.
Halfhill, a native of Canfield, Ohio (Canfield H.S.), is averaging 13.3 points per game this season, ranking second on the team (behind Rogers). She is 14th in the MAC in scoring, and ranks among the league's top-10 players in assists per game, with 3.2. Halfhill leads the entire conference in three-point field-goal percentage, having hit 43.2% of her long-range tries, and she ranked seventh in the nation in that category in the most recent NCAA rankings. She is third in the league in three-pointers made per game, fourth in assist-to-turnover ratio and ninth in free-throw percentage.
In MAC games only, Halfhill finished the conference campaign with 14.7 ppg, good for 10th in the league. She led the entire MAC in three-point accuracy in league games, going 40-for-85 (47.1%) from long distance. Halfhill was third in the league in three-pointers made per game, fifth in assist-to-turnover ratio, seventh in FT pct. (83.3%), 11th in the league in assists (3.0 apg) and 15th in field-goal percentage (46.3).
Halfhill has scored in double digits in a team-leading 24 games this season, and has led BG in scoring 10 times and in assists on 15 occasions this season. She made the game-winning shot in Saturday's (March 8) 77-76 victory at Akron which helped BGSU clinch the outright regular-season crown.
Rogers, a native of West Chester, Ohio (Lakota West H.S.), leads the Falcons in scoring and ranks second in rebounding, with 14.9 points and 8.2 boards per contest. She is eighth in the league in scoring and ninth in rebounds. Rogers is second in the conference in field-goal percentage, having hit 156-of-292 shots (53.4%) this year to date. Rogers also ranks seventh in the MAC in free-throw pct. She has reached double digits in the scoring column 23 times this season and 61 times in her BG career. Rogers has a team-leading eight games of 20 or more points this winter, including a 23-point performance in Saturday's win over Akron. Rogers also had 15 rebounds and seven steals in that victory.
In MAC games only, Rogers finished fifth in the league in scoring and sixth in rebounding, with 16.4 ppg and 8.6 rpg. She was third in the conference in FT pct. and fourth in FG pct. in league games, and tied for fourth in steals against MAC opponents. Her eight double-doubles this season to date include five in MAC matches.
In her third playing season at BGSU, Rogers has scored a total of 1,196 points, an average of 12.6 per game. She ranks 20th in BGSU history in scoring.
The Falcons won the MAC's East Division, for the program's ninth divisional title in the last 10 years. BGSU captured the outright regular-season championship, with the best overall record in the league, for the eighth time in that 10-year span. BG is the number-one seed for the MAC Tournament, and the Falcons will face an opponent to be determined in semifinal-round action on Friday (March 14) at noon. That game will be held at Quicken Loans Arena in downtown Cleveland.
