DeWolfe, Heremaia Garner All-Metropolitan Honors

MWBA Release
 
New York, N.Y. – Fordham women's basketball standouts Anna DeWolfe and Kendell Heremaia can add one more accolade for their 2020-21 campaigns as the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association (MBWA) selected DeWolfe to the All-Met Division I First Team and Heremaia to the Second Team. It is the first MBWA year-end honor for both.
 
"It's nice to see when hard work and success is rewarded." Head coach Stephanie Gaitley said, "Anna had an incredible sophomore year being named Co-Player of the Year in the A-10 and Kene being named to the Second Team. Now to be named to the All-Met teams is the cherry on top!"
 
DeWolfe was named the Atlantic 10 Co-Player of the Year, in addition to First Team All-Conference and All-Academic, after leading the league in scoring with 20.8 points per game. She also became the program's third-ever student-athlete named WBCA All-America Honorable Mention. The sophomore guard scored in double figures in all but one contest and enjoyed 11 of 18 contests with at least 20 points. She started every game, shooting 41.0% from the field and team-highs of 38.3% from distance and 81.2% from the charity stripe, leading the Rams as a team captain to second place in the A-10 standings and a double bye at the A-10 Championship, plus a WNIT berth, the program's fifth in the past nine years. Among her compatriots nationally, DeWolfe ranked 22^nd in scoring and 25^th in minutes played per game at 37.3.  
 
Heremaia was named to the A-10 Second Team after another terrific all-around performance for the Rams. The senior started all 18 games and averaged 12.7 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.2 steals over 29.7 minutes, while shooting 37.6% overall, 33.9% from behind the arc, and 79.4% from the line. She finishes the campaign seventh all-time with 170 career made three-pointers and 11^th in three-point efficiency and career rebounds. She also became one of seven Rams to total 800 points, 500 rebounds, 200 assists, and 100 steals in a career. She is just 26 points away from 1,000 for her career, as well.
